Abstract
A brake system is includes a primary brake, the primary brake being an electrohydraulic brake, a redundant brake, the redundant brake being spring actuated, and at least one controller configured to control the primary brake and the redundant brake in response to a stopping signal such that the at least one controller is configured to cause the brake system to actuate the primary brake and the redundant brake simultaneously or sequentially.
Claims31
A brake system comprising:
- a primary brake, the primary brake being an electrohydraulic brake;
- a redundant brake, the redundant brake being spring actuated;
- and
- at least one controller configured to control the primary brake and the redundant brake in response to a stopping signal such that the at least one controller is configured to cause the brake system to actuate the primary brake and the redundant brake simultaneously or sequentially.

A vehicle comprising:
- a chassis;
- a drive shaft;
- and
- a brake system including
- a primary brake, the primary brake being an electrohydraulic brake;
- a redundant brake coupled to the chassis and the drive shaft, the redundant brake being spring actuated;
- and
- at least one controller configured to control the primary brake and the redundant brake in response to a stopping signal such that the at least one controller is configured to cause the brake system to actuate the primary brake and the redundant brake simultaneously or sequentially.
5 more elements
A method of operating a brake system, the method comprising:
- controlling a primary brake in response to a stopping signal, the primary brake being an electrohydraulic brake;
- controlling a redundant brake in response to a stopping signal, the redundant brake being spring actuated;
- and
- causing the brake system to actuate the primary brake and the redundant brake simultaneously or sequentially.
