Abstract
Abstract An anti-skid control system for use in an automotive vehicle comprises a brake detecting device for detecting a braking operation of the vehicle, a deceleration detecting device for detecting an deceleration of a road-wheel during the braking operation, and a control device for controlling the braking operation in order to establish the maximum value of the deceleration. Independent of a surface of a road, the minimum braking distance is obtained.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
148 words
An anti-skid control system for use in an automotive vehicle comprising: brake detecting means for detecting a braking operation of the vehicle; target slip rate calculating means for calculating a slip rate such that a deceleration of a vehicle-body becomes its maximum value and setting the resulting slip rate as a target slip rate; and adjusting means for adjusting a real slip rate of a wheel so as to be in coincidence with the target slip rate further comprising real yaw rate detecting means for detecting a real yaw rate of the vehicle, a target yaw rate setting means for setting a target yaw rate of the vehicle, yaw rate deviation calculating means for calculating a yaw rate deviation between the real yaw rate and the target yaw rate, and a slip rate regulating means for regulating the slip rate on the basis of the yaw rate deviation.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
148 words
An anti-skid control system for use in an automotive vehicle comprising: brake detecting means for detecting a braking operation of the vehicle; target slip rate calculating means for calculating a slip rate such that a deceleration of a vehicle-body becomes its maximum value and setting the resulting slip rate as a target slip rate; and adjusting means for adjusting a real slip rate of a wheel so as to be in coincidence with the target slip rate further comprising real yaw rate detecting means for detecting a real yaw rate of the vehicle, a target yaw rate setting means for setting a target yaw rate of the vehicle, yaw rate deviation calculating means for calculating a yaw rate deviation between the real yaw rate and the target yaw rate, and a slip rate regulating means for regulating the slip rate on the basis of the yaw rate deviation.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
40 words
An anti-skid control system according to claim 1 further comprising steering angle detecting means for detecting a steering angle of the vehicle, wherein the target yaw rate setting means uses the steering angle upon setting of the target yaw rate.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
44 words
An anti-skid control system according to claim 2 further comprising speed detecting means for detecting a speed of the vehicle, wherein the target yaw rate setting means uses the steering angle, and the speed of the vehicle upon setting of the target yaw rate.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
64 words
An anti-skid control system according to claim 2 further comprising speed detecting means for detecting a speed of the vehicle at each road-wheel, and means for detecting the maximum value of the speed of the vehicle at each road-wheel, wherein the target yaw rate setting means uses the the maximum value of the speed of the vehicle upon setting of the target yaw rate.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
34 words
An anti-skid control system according to claim 1, wherein the slip rate regulating means regulates the slip rate on the basis of the speed of the vehicle in addition to the yaw rate deviation.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
67 words
An anti-skid control system according to claim 1 further comprising speed detecting means for detecting a speed of the vehicle at each road-wheel, and means for detecting the maximum value of the speed of the vehicle at each road-wheel, wherein the slip rate regulating means regulates the slip rate on the basis of the yaw rate deviation, and the maximum value of the speed of the vehicle.
