Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Disclosed is a method for operating an electromechanically operable parking brake for motor vehicles with a driving engine furnished with a mechanical gear box, being substantially composed of an operating element, an electronic control unit, to which are sent wheel rotational speed values from wheel rotational speed sensors, at least one unit for generating a brake application force, and brake devices on at least one axle being lockable by the unit, with the electronic control unit actuating the unit after detection of a starting maneuver of the motor vehicle in the sense of a release operation of the parking brake. In order to render a release operation of the parking brake as comfortable as possible after detection of a starting maneuver of the motor vehicle, the method at issued arranges that the electronic control unit ( 6 ) actuates the unit ( 1 ) in order to reduce the brake application force to an inclination-responsive holding force when a starting maneuver is detected and before the release operation of the parking brake is performed.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for operating an hydraulic brake system including an electromechanically operable parking brake for a motor vehicle with a driving engine furnished with a mechanical gear box composed of an operating element, an electronic control and regulation unit associated with a service brake system which receives wheel rotational speed values from wheel rotational speed sensors, at least one unit comprising an electronic control unit associated with the…
