  2. 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.

  3. 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 ...

  4. Overrun brake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overrun_brake

    The older spring based systems had performance issues, and an insufficiently well designed and implemented system can be nonfunctional and undrivable. The problem with these spring based systems happens as follows: As the towing vehicle brakes, the trailer travels forward, sliding the mechanism, for a distance before trailer braking begins.

  5. Relay valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relay_valve

    A relay valve is an air-operated valve typically used in air brake systems to remotely control the brakes at the rear of a heavy truck or semi-trailer in a tractor-trailer combination. Relay valves are necessary in heavy trucks in order to speed-up rear-brake application and release, since air takes longer to travel to the rear of the vehicle ...

  6. Electronically controlled pneumatic brakes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronically_controlled...

    When the brake pipe and car components are charged with air, the brakes release. When the engineer needs to make a brake application, control valves in the locomotive reduce the brake pipe pressure. As the brake pipe pressure is reduced, the service portions on each car divert air from their reservoirs to their brake cylinders.

  7. Electronic stability control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_stability_control

    While conventional traction control systems at the time featured only a slip control function, Mitsubishi's TCL system had an active safety function, which improved course tracing performance by automatically adjusting the traction force (called "trace control"), thereby restraining the development of excessive lateral acceleration while turning.

  8. Power brakes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_brakes

    Vacuum boosters provide brake assist for the driver by multiplying the force out of the booster creating more than the force that was used to push on the brake pedal. The booster works by pulling the air out of the booster chamber with a pump or other vacuum source (typically the engine's intake manifold [ 1 ] ), creating a low-pressure system ...

  9. Electronically controlled brake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Electronically_Controlled_Brake

    Electronically controlled brake (ECB) developed by Toyota Motor Corporation initially for its hybrid and Lexus models, is the world's first production brake-by-wire braking system. [1] The ECB went on sale in Japan in June 2001, [ 2 ] first appearing on the Toyota Estima hybrid (first generation), [ 3 ] and making its North American debut with ...
