Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A vehicle brake controller is capable of executing limit control for limiting increase in braking force applied to front wheels by using a deceleration of a vehicle. The vehicle brake controller is configured to start the limit control when the deceleration of the vehicle becomes greater than or equal to a start determination value before a start determination time period elapses after a deceleration starting point in time, at which the deceleration of the vehicle is started by application of braking force at least to the front wheels. The vehicle brake controller is configured to end the limit control if the deceleration of the vehicle is less than an end determination value, which is greater than the start determination value, at a point in time when an end determination time period, which is longer than the start determination time period, has elapsed from the deceleration starting point in time.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A vehicle brake controller that is capable of executing limit control for delaying increase in braking force applied to a front wheel without delaying increase in braking force applied to a rear wheel by using a deceleration of a vehicle based on a detection signal from a front-back direction acceleration sensor and of setting a point in time of start of the limit control, wherein the vehicle brake controller is configured to: start the limit control…
