Abstract
A drive slip control system for a motor vehicle which brakes a driven wheel when that wheel begins to slip and which reduces engine torque when both driven wheels begin to slip on the pavement. The action of the drive slip control system is inhibited when the engine speed falls below a preset speed, such as the engine idle speed.
Claims3
A drive slip control system for a motor vehicle having two driven wheels and brakes at each of said driven wheels, said control system comprising:
- means for determining when at least one of the driven wheels is slipping,
- actuator means for applying brake pressure to the brakes at at least one of the driven wheels when slipping is determined,
- means for comparing the engine speed with a preset speed, and
- means for preventing said actuator means from applying brake pressure at said at least one of said driven wheels when the engine speed falls below the preset speed.
