Abstract
A method for controlling a brake system including receiving a braking signal for setting a braking action by the brake system, ascertaining a minimum rate of pressure increase in the brake system in order to effect the braking action within a predefined response time, and setting a pumping capacity of a pump of the brake system so that the pressure in the brake system increases in accordance with the minimum rate.
Claims10
A method for controlling a brake system, comprising:
- receiving a braking signal for setting a braking action by the brake system;
- ascertaining a minimum rate of pressure increase in the brake system in order to effect the braking action within a predefined response time;
- and
- setting a pumping capacity of a pump of the brake system so that the pressure in the brake system increases in accordance with the minimum rate,
- wherein the pumping capacity is set as a function of the minimum rate of pressure increase.
A method for controlling a brake system, comprising:
- receiving a braking signal for setting a braking action by the brake system;
- ascertaining a minimum rate of pressure increase in the brake system in order to effect the braking action within a predefined response time;
- and
- setting a pumping capacity of a pump of the brake system so that the pressure in the brake system increases in accordance with the minimum rate,
- wherein an instantaneous dead volume of the brake system is determined and the pumping capacity is determined as a function of a current dead volume.
A method for controlling a brake system, comprising:
- receiving a braking signal for setting a braking action by the brake system;
- ascertaining a minimum rate of pressure increase in the brake system in order to effect the braking action within a predefined response time;
- and
- setting a pumping capacity of a pump of the brake system so that the pressure in the brake system increases in accordance with the minimum rate,
- wherein at least one of a transverse acceleration and a velocity is detected, and the pumping capacity is increased when the at least one of the transverse acceleration and velocity increases.
A method for controlling a brake system, comprising:
- receiving a braking signal for setting a braking action by the brake system;
- ascertaining a minimum rate of pressure increase in the brake system in order to effect the braking action within a predefined response time;
- and
- setting a pumping capacity of a pump of the brake system so that the pressure in the brake system increases in accordance with the minimum rate,
- wherein the braking signal predefines a setpoint pressure, an instantaneous actual pressure in the brake system is determined, based on a characteristic of the brake system a volume of brake fluid is ascertained which will raise the pressure from an actual pressure to the setpoint pressure when pumped into the brake system, and the pumping capacity of the pump is set as a function of the volume ascertained and the predefined response time.
A brake system having:
- a pump to build up a hydraulic pressure in a line to which at least one brake element is connected;
- and
- a control system to set a pumping capacity of the pump, the control system adapted to receive a brake signal for setting a braking action by the brake system, ascertain a minimum rate of pressure increase in the brake system in order to effect the braking action within a predefined response time, and set a pumping capacity of the pump so that the pressure in the brake system increases in accordance with the minimum rate,
- wherein the pumping capacity is set by the control system as a function of the minimum rate of pressure increase.
