Estimating the term…
A computer system has processing circuitry to control an electrically controllable release bolt of a parking brake actuator of a vehicle is provided. The electrically controllable release bolt adjusts a compression of a parking brake spring of the parking brake actuator. The processing circuitry is configured to determine an activation state for the electrically controllable release bolt based on a pressure status of an air-pressure supply of the parking brake actuator and/or based on a input. When the electrically controllable release bolt is active and in response to detecting a parking brake request or parking brake release request, the processing circuitry is configured to control or to adjust the electrically controllable release bolt to adjust a compression of the parking brake spring based on the detected parking brake request or parking brake release request.
A computer system comprising processing circuitry configured to control an electrically controllable release bolt of a parking brake actuator of a vehicle, the electrically controllable release bolt being arranged to adjust a compression state of a parking brake spring of the parking brake actuator, wherein a resulting brake force applied by the parking brake actuator to a wheel of the vehicle is based on said compression state, the processing circuitry is configured to:
A computer-implemented method for controlling an electrically controllable release bolt of a parking brake actuator of a vehicle, the electrically controllable release bolt being arranged to adjust a compression state of a parking brake spring of the parking brake actuator, wherein a resulting brake force applied by the parking brake actuator to a wheel of the vehicle is based on said compression state, the method further comprising:
