Pneumatic brake exception detecting method and its system
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of braking detective system and method for detecting, particularly, be can be pre-actuated about one kind it is standby
Help or carry out the pneumatic brake exception detecting method and its system of troubleshooting.
Background technique
Increasingly complicated environment has only been unable to cope with the reaction of vehicle driver now, thus driver personal is anti-
Should be able to the good of power corrupt will substantially influence traffic safety.Wherein brake and drive system for vehicle with tow for traffic safety be most important system it
One, auxiliary vehicle driver has largely been developed to increase the brake assist system of traffic safety.However these brake now
Prompting drives power-off, using the design for staying brake or interruption power when auxiliary system is mostly used to provide brake failure.But for
The pressure abnormity occurred between vehicle driving does not provide enough research and development.
The pressure abnormity occurred between aforementioned vehicle traveling is the brake failure of most of lorries, truck or oversize vehicle now
Unexpected main cause.In the past known technology in the market be all detect pressure in storage cylinder as unique pneumatic brake judge because
Son, and redundant scheme is only the pneumatic supply for increasing auxiliary, such as TaiWan, China patent I1312324 case.Also increase brake steps on
The brake abnormity detecting technology of the assessment of plate strength and the pressure integration in storage cylinder, such as United States Patent (USP) US7216552B2 case.
But for actual vehicle drive, simple pneumatic supply and brake pedal and can not accurately judge be front axle brake or after
Axis brake will generate failure situation, also enable subsequent driving emergency brake movement mistake frequent occurrence, not only result in Pneumatic brake
The emergency brake of vehicle once again failure or reaction it is too late, also common driving emergency brake mode mistake and lorry roll-over accident occurs.
Although however, it is aforementioned commonly use in have a redundant mode, increase the mode in assist gas pressure source pole in extreme situations
It is vulnerable, such as when speed is too fast or excessively close with leading vehicle distance, it, will because of assist gas pressure source Initiated Mechanism or the difference of installation position
Can not immediate reaction lead to not slow down speed or actuated vehicle self-actuating brake immediately to normal danger, thus still result in and touch
Hit generation.
In addition, above-mentioned problem specifically occur in auxiliary brake system especially can only be in the system of simple alerting drivers.One
As under driver is insufficient in information and reaction is too late situation, be unable to fully solve the situation of brake failure at all.Therefore, manufacturer
Still it is eager to seek to deal with the pneumatic brake abnormity detecting system of various pneumatic brake fault state comprehensively, more expects phase occur
The brake standby system of pass, is effectively reduced that oversize vehicle pneumatic brake is not normal or the situation of auxiliary brake baulk.
