Electro-hydraulic brake-by-wire system and method

摘要

An electro-hydraulic brake-by-wire system includes a brake pedal, an electronic booster coupled to the brake pedal, a master cylinder coupled to the electronic booster, at least one front hydraulic brake disposed in fluid communication with the master cylinder, at least one electronic control unit connected to the brake pedal and at least one rear electronic brake connected to the at least one electronic control unit.

主权项

1. An electro-hydraulic brake system, comprising:
a brake pedal; an electronic booster coupled to said brake pedal and connected to at least one electronic control unit; a master cylinder coupled to said electronic booster; at least one front hydraulic brake disposed in fluid communication with said master cylinder; said at least one electronic control unit connected to said brake pedal; at least one rear electronic brake connected to said at least one electronic control unit; and wherein said at least one electronic control unit is configured to actuate said electronic booster and said at least one rear electronic brake in response to sensed brake pedal travel and wherein said at least one electronic control unit is further configured to actuate at least one of said electronic booster and said at least one rear electronic brake independent of said sensed travel of said brake pedal, said at least one electronic control unit further configured to independently control braking pressure applied to each of said at least one rear electronic brake and said at least one front hydraulic brake.
