2. Parking brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parking_brake

   In manual transmission vehicles, the parking brake is engaged to help keep the vehicle stationary while parked, especially if parked on an incline. [2] [3]While automatic transmission vehicles have a "Park" gear that immobilizes the transmission, it is still recommended to use the parking brake, as the parking pawl in the gearbox could fail due to stress or another vehicle striking the car ...

3. Parking pawl - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parking_pawl

   The main components of a parking pawl mechanism are the parking gear, parking pawl, actuator rod, cam collar, cam plate, pivot pin, and parking pawl return spring. The mechanism assembly is designed so that the parking pawl tooth collides and overrides the parking gear teeth (ratchets) until a safe engagement speed for the vehicle is reached.

4. Electronic parking brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_Park_Brake

   Electric park brake in the center console in a Volkswagen Golf Variant. An electronic parking brake (EPB), also known as an electric parking brake or electric park brake, is an electronically controlled parking brake, whereby the driver activates the holding mechanism with a button and the brake pads are electrically applied to the rear wheels.

5. Brake-by-wire - Wikipedia

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

   Brake by wire is now a mature concept in its application to vehicle parking brakes. The electronic parking brake (EPB) was introduced in the early 2000s by BMW and Audi on their top line models (the 7 Series and A8 respectively) to dispense with the traditional cable operated system (operated via a lever between the seats or via a foot pedal ...

6. Shift-by-wire - Wikipedia

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

   The main components of a park by wire system include the driver interface which could be a lever, switch, or knob; an electronic control unit; and actuators which are capable of driving the parking pawl into and out of the locking position with the parking gear of the transmission. [2] [better source needed]

7. Electronic brakeforce distribution - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_brakeforce...

   FS: Parking Brake. Electronic brakeforce distribution (EBD or EBFD) or electronic brakeforce limitation (EBL) is an automobile brake technology that automatically varies the amount of force applied to each of a vehicle's wheels, based on road conditions, speed, loading, etc, thus providing intelligent control of both brake balance and overall ...

8. Drive by wire - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drive_by_wire

   The three main types of brake-by-wire systems are: electronic parking brakes which have, since the turn of the 21st century, become more common; electro-hydraulic brakes (EHB) which can be implemented alongside legacy hydraulic brakes and as of 2020 have found small-scale usage in the automotive industry; and electro-mechanical brakes (EMB ...

9. Traction control system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traction_control_system

   Typically, traction control systems share the electrohydraulic brake actuator (which does not use the conventional master cylinder and servo) and wheel-speed sensors with ABS. The basic idea behind the need for a traction control system is the loss of road grip can compromise steering control and stability of vehicles.
