    摘要: Disclosed herein are an electromechanical brake system and a control method thereof. In accordance with one aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided an electromechanical brake system including electromechanical brakes respectively provided on four wheels of a vehicle, a sensor part that outputs a signal which corresponds to or is capable of estimating whether each of the electromechanical brakes is normal and a driver demand braking torque generated based on the speed and lateral acceleration of the vehicle and a brake pedal operation of a driver, and a controller that estimates a demand braking torque based on the signal received from the sensor part and determines whether the electromechanical brakes are normal, wherein the controller performs a braking control as much as the demand braking torque based on the determination that the electromechanical brakes are normal, and performs a braking control by distributing, within a range of the demand braking torque, braking torques based on the lateral acceleration of the vehicle to the respective other electromechanical brakes except the electromechanical brake determined to malfunction based on the determination that there is a malfunction of any one among the electromechanical brakes.

    摘要: The present invention obtains a controller and a control method capable of simultaneously achieving freedom of driving and safety of a lean vehicle.
    In a controller (60) and the control method according to the present invention, a control section of the controller (60) can execute anti-lock braking operation for suppressing locking of a rear wheel (4) by increasing/reducing a braking force or drive power of the rear wheel (4) of a lean vehicle (100) and thereby controlling a slip degree of the rear wheel (4) to a slip degree target, and in the case where a slide request, which is a request by a rider to make the lean vehicle (100) slide, is present, implements a slide control mode in which the anti-lock braking operation is performed by setting the slip degree target to be higher than that of a case where the slide request is absent.

    摘要: A method controls a brake system of a vehicle combination. The switching valve in the second setting (anti-jackknifing braking function active) outputs a reservoir pressure into a trailer pressure line to actuate the trailer service brakes dependent on the anti-jackknifing braking demand. When service braking demand and anti-jackknifing braking demand are simultaneously present, an anti-jackknifing and a service braking ratio value are determined, a switchover criterion is checked dependent on the ratio values. The criterion is satisfied if the service braking ratio value exceeds a specified fraction of the anti-jackknifing braking ratio value when the anti-jackknifing braking function is active and falls below the specified fraction when the anti-jackknifing braking function is inactive; and, if the criterion is satisfied, the switching valve is switched over to activate the anti-jackknifing braking function and implement the anti-jackknifing braking demand, or to deactivate the anti-jackknifing braking function and implement the service braking demand.
