2. Overrun brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overrun_brake

   However this results in the towing vehicle bearing some of the trailer braking load, something the towing vehicle is often not designed to do. The result is compromised braking. Because of its issues, all OECD countries limit the maximum road legal towable weight (UK up to 3500kg or 7716lbs) using such a braking system.

3. Trailer brake controller - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trailer_brake_controller

   A brake controller is usually an original equipment manufacturer or aftermarket-installed device or module. It is mounted to the tow vehicle's driver's-side dashboard area, and engages a trailer's electrical braking system either time delayed, or in proportion to the tow vehicle's brake engagement when slowing down or coming to a halt.

4. Trailer stability assist - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trailer_stability_assist

   TSA systems detect when a trailer is starting to oscillate while under tow and corrects any dangerous trailer swing through a combination of either torque reduction and/or individual wheel braking to bring the trailer and tow-vehicle back under control.

5. Ford TowCommand - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_TowCommand

   With adjustable +/- trailer braking gain in a digital readout from 0.0 (no trailer brakes) to 10.0 (full trailer braking) in 0.5 increments and a manual override lever (to test trailer braking action), the Ford 'built into the dash' TBC provides smooth braking even when pulling up to a 15,000 lb 4-axle conventional (receiver mounted) or 26,000 ...

6. Electric friction brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_friction_brake

   The brake shoes are held in place by reactor springs (2) and an adjuster (7) spring. There are also some minor clips not pictured to keep the brake shoes in place. Braking starts with applying a current proportional to the desired brake force to the electromagnet (5) which is pulled axially towards the drum

7. Brake-by-wire - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake-by-wire

   Brake-by-wire exists on heavy duty commercial vehicles under the name Electronic Braking System (EBS). This system provides electronic activation of all braking system components including retarder and engine brake. EBS also supports trailers and communicates between the towing vehicle and trailer using the ISO 11992 protocol.
