VEHICLE BRAKING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240317201 titled 'VEHICLE BRAKING APPARATUS
The abstract describes a vehicle braking apparatus designed for a vehicle with electric brakes that can exert braking forces separately on each wheel. A braking force controller manages the braking forces applied by the electric brakes, with a first pair for the front wheels and a second pair for the rear wheels. At least one of the pairs includes multiphase electric brakes with a motor having three or more phases. The controller ensures an even distribution of current in the multiphase motor, except under specific conditions.
- Electric brakes exert braking forces separately on each wheel
- Braking force controller manages braking forces individually
- Front and rear wheels each have a pair of electric brakes
- Multiphase electric brakes with three or more phases
- Controller prevents current concentration in the motor under certain conditions
Potential Applications: - Automotive industry for advanced braking systems - Electric vehicle technology for improved safety and control
Problems Solved: - Enhanced braking performance and control - Prevents uneven distribution of braking forces
Benefits: - Increased safety on the road - Improved handling and stability - Enhanced efficiency in braking systems
Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Electric Braking Systems for Vehicles This technology can be utilized in electric vehicles, autonomous vehicles, and other automotive applications to enhance braking performance and safety, catering to the growing demand for advanced vehicle technologies in the market.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the braking force controller ensure an even distribution of current in the multiphase motor? The braking force controller executes an up-down process to prevent a current from being concentrated on a particular phase of the multiphase motor, except when the vehicle satisfies a predetermined exemption condition.
2. What are the potential implications of using multiphase electric brakes in vehicles? Multiphase electric brakes offer improved control and efficiency in braking systems, leading to enhanced safety and performance on the road.
Original Abstract Submitted
a vehicle braking apparatus is adapted to a vehicle in which electric brakes are separately provided for wheels, and the electric brakes separately exert braking forces on the wheels. a braking force controller controls the braking forces separately exerted by the electric brakes. a first pair of electric brakes are provided for a front-left wheel and a front-right wheel, and a second pair of electric brakes are provided for a rear-left wheel and a rear-right wheel. at least one of the first pair of electric brakes or the second pair of electric brakes are multiphase electric brakes, and each of the multiphase electric brakes includes a multiphase motor having three or more phases. the braking force controller executes an up-down process to prevent a current from being concentrated on a particular phase of the multiphase motor, except when the vehicle satisfies a predetermined exemption condition.
