CONTROL DEVICE, CONTROL SYSTEM, AND CONTROL METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18140249 titled 'CONTROL DEVICE, CONTROL SYSTEM, AND CONTROL METHOD
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a control device for a vehicle that can control its motion.
- The control device includes a controller that can generate a braking force to slow down the vehicle when a braking request is made.
- The controller can release the braking force if a specific condition for continuing the braking control is not met.
- However, if the condition is met and the accelerator pedal is operated during braking, the controller will maintain the braking force.
- This innovation allows for more precise control of the vehicle's motion during braking, taking into account the operation of the accelerator pedal.
Original Abstract Submitted
A control device configured to control motion of a vehicle includes a controller. The controller is configured to execute braking control that generates a braking force for decelerating the vehicle in response to a braking request. The controller is configured to release the braking force by the braking control when a predetermined condition for continuing the braking control is not satisfied, and to maintain the braking force by the braking control when the predetermined condition is satisfied, in a case where an accelerator pedal is operated during execution of the braking control.
