1. AN INTRODUCTION TO ANTILOCK BRAKING :-

This section reviews several basic antilock braking system (ABS) concepts.

When you complete this section, you should be able to answer the following

questions:

• What is an ABS?

• Why are antilock braking systems (ABSs) standard on most new commercial

vehicles?

• How does an ABS work?

• What are the major features and benefits of ABSs?

• How should I drive an ABS-equipped vehicle during a road test?

1.1 What is an ABS?Antilock braking systems (ABSs) are electronic systems that monitor and

control wheel slip during vehicle braking. ABSs can improve vehicle control

during braking, and reduce stopping distances on slippery (split or low

coefficient of friction) road surfaces by limiting wheel slip and minimizing

lockup. Rolling wheels have much more traction than locked wheels. Reducing

wheel slip improves vehicle stability and control during braking, since stability

increases as wheel slip decreases.

ABSs can be applied to nearly all types of vehicles and can be successfully

integrated into hydraulic and air brake systems (including air over hydraulic.

Antilock brake systems addresses two conditions related to brake application;

wheel lockup and vehicle directional control.

The brake slow the rotation of the wheels, but it is actually the friction between

the tire and road surface that stops the vehicle. Without ABS when brakes are

applied with enough force to lock the wheels, the vehicle slides uncontrollably

because there is no traction between the tire and road surface. While the wheels

are skidding, steering control is lost as well.

An antilock brake system provides a high level of safety to the driver by

preventing the wheels from locking, which maintains directional stability.

1.2 HISTORY:-• 1929 Anti-lock braking systems were first developed for aircraft, by Gabriel Voisin,

• 1950 Dunlop's Maxaret introduced a system and still in use on some aircraft models

• 1960 A fully mechanical system used in the Ferguson P99 racing car, the Jensen FF

and the Ford Zodiac, but saw no further use; the system proved expensive and, in

automobile use, somewhat unreliable

• 1964 Limited form of ABS in Austin 1800, utilizing a valve which could adjust front to

rear brake force distribution when a wheel locked

• 1971 Chrysler, and Bendix Corporation, introduced 1971 Imperial. Called "Sure

Brake",

• 1971 ABS Systems based Mercedes design were later introduced on other cars. GM

introduced the "Trackmaster" ABS on their Cadillac models

• 1975 Ford also introduced ABS on the Lincoln Continental Mark III and the Ford LTD

station wagon, called "Sure Trak

• 1978 Bosch and Mercedes-Benz introduced the first completely electronic 4-wheel

multi-channel ABS system in trucks and the Mercedes-Benz S-Class

• 1988 BMW became the world's first motorcycle manufacturer to introduce an

electronic/hydraulic ABS system, this on their BMW K100

• 1992 Honda launched its first ABS system, this on the ST1100 Pan European

• 1997 Suzuki launched its GSF1200SA (Bandit) with ABS

• Today ABS has become a standard equipment even for small cars

2 . HOW DO ABSs WORK?An ABS consists of several key components: electronic control unit (ECU), wheel

speed sensors, modulator valves, and exciter rings. Here’s how these components

work together:

1. Wheel speed sensors constantly monitor and send electrical pulses to the ECU at a

rate proportional to the wheel speed.

2. When the pulse rates indicate impending wheel lockup, the ECU signals the

modulator valve(s) to reduce and/or hold the brake application pressure to the

wheel(s) in question.

3. The ECU then adjusts pressure, seeking one which gives maximum braking without

risking wheel lockup.

4. When the ECU acts to modulate the brake pressure, it will also (on most vehicles)

turn off the retarder (if so equipped) until the risk of lockup is over.

5. The ECU continually checks itself for proper operation. If it detects a

malfunction/failure in the electrical/electronic system, it will shut down that part of the

ABS affected by the problem—or the entire ABS depending upon the system and the

problem. When this happens, the ABS malfunction lamp light.

3. HOW SHOULD I DRIVE AN ABS-EQUIPPED VEHICLE DURING

ROAD TESTS?

It is the consensus of brake experts that drivers should brake an ABS-equipped vehicle

just as they would brake a non- ABS equipped vehicle. The proper braking technique is

to maintain a steady, modulated brake application. Modulated, in this case, means

applying only the pressure required to achieve the desired deceleration. Do not slam on

the brakes to make speed corrections or routine stops.

When operating on slippery surfaces, with or without an ABS, it is strongly

recommended that drivers depress the clutch when braking. Engine braking itself can

cause drive wheels to slip. Usually, any retarder will automatically be disabled when

the ABS is in use. Much of what is taught about hydraulic ABSs doesn’t apply to air

ABSs. Thus, it’s important to remember the following:

• Brake as if no ABS is present, with a modulated application as described previously.

• Unless certain that the entire combination vehicle has a working ABS, don’t stomp on

the brakes in a panic situation—one or more wheels could lock and cause the vehicle to

jack knife. Even then, be careful because you can still jack knife or lose control if the

vehicle is travelling too fast.

• Do not expect to feel the brake pedal pulsing or hear strange sounds when the ABS

activates on air-braked vehicles. These vehicles do not transmit pulsing pressure to the

driver’s foot and the driver probably will not hear the system cycling.

4. THEORY:-

If the driver brakes very hard it can occur that the maximum static friction is

surpassed and the wheels lose their grip and begin sliding friction.

• The amount of traction which can be obtained for an auto tire is determined by the

coefficient of static friction between the tire and the road. If the wheel is locked and

sliding, the force of friction is determined by the coefficient of kinetic friction.

• A tire that is just on the verge of slipping produces more friction with respect to the

road than one which is locked and skidding. So locked wheels are less effective in

stopping on a road. But in gravel, sand and deep snow, locked wheels dig in and stop

the vehicle more quickly. A locked tire allows a small wedge of snow to build up ahead

of it which allows it to stop in a somewhat shorter distance than a rolling tire.

• When tire does not slip, it will roll only in the direction it turns. But once it skids,

regardless of the angle of the front wheels, the vehicle continues to skid in whatever

direction its momentum sends it until either the driver releases the brakes.

5. ABS COMPONENT DESCRIPTIONS & OPERATION :-

When we complete this section, we should understand the purpose and function of

all major ABS parts including: the ECU, the modulator valve, the wheel speed

sensor, ABS malfunction/ indicator lamp, ABS diagnostic components, and traction

control.

Modern antilock braking systems all feature the following major components (See

Fig. 1 on page 9 for typical system):

• Electronic Control Unit (ECU)

• Modulator Valves

• Wheel Speed Sensors (pickup and exciter)

• Diagnostics

Page 11: SEMINAR · Web viewABSs can be applied to nearly all types of vehicles and can be successfully integrated into hydraulic and air brake systems (including air over hydraulic. Antilock

5.1 ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT (ECU):-The ECU processes all ABS information and signal functions. It receives and

interprets voltage pulses generated by the sensor pickup as the exciter teeth pass by,

and uses this information to determine:

• impending wheel lock-up and

• when/how to activate the ABS modulator valves. The ECU connects to the

following ABS components: wheel speed sensors, ABS modulator valves, power

source, ground, warning lamps, blink code switch, J1587* diagnostic connector, and

retarder control device (usually by relay or the J1922**/ J1939*** datalink.) The

ECU also makes self-diagnostic checks during normal operation.

During braking, the ECU uses voltage pulses from each wheel speed sensor to

determine wheel speed changes. If the ECU determines that the pulse rate of the

sensed wheels indicates imminent lock-up, it cycles the ABS modulator valves

to modify brake air pressure as needed to provide the best braking possible.

The ECU sends signals to the ABS malfunction indicator lamp or blink code lamp to

communicate ABS faults. It also sends signals to the retarder control to disengage

the retarder when the ABS is working. When the ABS stops modulating the

brake pressure, the ECU permits retarder use once again.

5.1.1 MODULATOR VALVES :-ABS modulator valves regulate the air pressure to the brakes during ABS action. When

not receiving commands from the ECU, the modulator valve allows air to flow freely and

has no effect on the brake pressure. The ECU commands the modulator valve to either:

• change the air pressure to the brake chamber, or

• hold the existing pressure. However, it cannot automatically apply the brakes, or

increase the brake application pressure above the level applied by the driver.

The modulator valve typically contains two solenoids. The modulator valve and relay

valve may be incorporated into a single unit. The modulator valve may also be separate,

inserted into the service line to the brake chamber(s) after any relay valve, located as

close as practicable to the chamber(s) itself. When the modulator valve is separate, it has

to control more air flow and, therefore, includes two larger diaphragm valves which are

controlled by the solenoids. It usually has three ports: the supply port, the delivery port

and the exhaust port.

• The supply port receives air from a quick release or relay valve.

• The delivery port sends air to the brake chambers.

• The exhaust port vents air from the brake chamber(s).

Typically, when an ECU controlling a separate modulator valve detects impending wheel

lockup, it activates the solenoids to close the supply port and open the exhaust port.

When enough air is vented to prevent wheel lockup, the exhaust valve will close and the

ECU will—depending on the situation—either:

• keep the supply port closed to maintain existingpressure, or

• open the supply port to allow brake application pressure to increase and repeat the

cycle.

5.1.2 Wheel Speed Sensors :-

(a) Sensing via Hall effect:-The wheel speed sensor has two main components: the exciter and the pickup. Other

components include associated wiring and mounting equipment.

Exciter—The exciter is a ring with notched teeth. The most commonly used exciter

has 100 evenly spaced teeth, but the number of teeth can vary depending on the system

design. The component is known by several names: sensor ring, tooth wheel, tone ring,

and exciter.

Pickup-The pickup is commonly called “the sensor.” It contains a wire coil/magnet

assembly, which generates pulses of electricity as the teeth of the exciter pass in front of

it. The ECU uses the pulses to determine wheel speeds and rates of

acceleration/deceleration. The strength of these electrical pulses decreases rapidly with

slight increases in the gap between the pickup and the exciter.

Wheel speed sensor location varies. It can be located anywhere on the axle to sense

wheel speed. The sensor can be an assembly containing both the exciter and the pickup

with a fixed gap. Or, the pickup and the exciter can be mounted

separately on different parts of the axle assembly. The sensor pickup is a sealed unit and

typically of elbow or straight design. On most ABS air-braked vehicles, the pickup is

located in the mounting flange on the wheel end. The exciter usually is either mounted

on—or integrated with—the wheel hub. Since the output of the pickup decreases so

rapidly with slight increases in exciter-pickup gap, it is imperative that the wheel end

and sensor gap be maintained within the

manufacturer’s specification. When the wheels of only one tandem axle have

wheel speed sensors, they are usually placed on the axle whose wheels are most likely

to lock-up first during braking. On a tandem with a four-spring suspension, the sensors

are generally on the lead axle. On a tandem with air suspension, the sensors are

generally located on the trailing axle. ABS configuration is defined by the arrangement

and number of sensors and modulator valves used. The most common configurations

for power units are:

• four sensors/four modulators (4S/4M),• six sensors/four modulators (6S/4M), and• six sensors/six modulators (6S/6M).Common configurations for trailers are 2S/1M, 2S/2M, 4S/ 2M and 4S/3M.

5.1.3 DECELARATION SENSOR:-

A deceleration sensor for detecting a threshold level of deceleration indicative of a vehicle

collision, comprising a pair of sensor masses in the form of pendulums, a spring-loaded

firing pin, a pair of trigger levers which individually hold the firing pin in a dormant state

as long as they are held by the sensor masses in their neutral states but can be individually

disengaged from the sensor masses by the motion of the sensor masses as a result of

detecting a deceleration level greater than the threshold level. Since the firing pin is

released only when both the trigger levers are released from their neutral states, the

reliability of the dormant state of the firing pin is assured. To the end of improving the

reliability of the activation of the firing pin, the firing pin may be spring-loaded by a pair

of springs in such a manner that either spring is sufficient for the activation of the firing

pin.

The purpose of the invention is to improve and upgrade the existing automobile brake

system. Currently, when a motorist pushes the foot brake in the car to decelerate a Light

Emitting Diode (LED) indicator mounted on the trunk and in the rear windows of a vehicle

lights up to indicate slowing down and stopping. In most vehicle LED systems, the

distinction between a deceleration, hard braking, and a stop cannot be indicated or

Page 20: SEMINAR · Web viewABSs can be applied to nearly all types of vehicles and can be successfully integrated into hydraulic and air brake systems (including air over hydraulic. Antilock

differentiated. The goal of the invention is to create a braking indication system that will

demonstrate how fast a car is decelerating with LED arranged in a fashion to turn on

proportional to the amount of pressure applied to the brake. Once pressure is applied, the

brakes are applied and the brake light will let the vehicle behind know how quickly the

vehicle is slowing down by showing an approximation using the LED display. Therefore if

a driver is to lightly tap on his brakes, the brake indicator will light a small amount of LED

to symbolize slowing down but not stopping. Adversely, if a driver “slams on the brakes,”

an additional complete row of brake lights will illuminate to indicate you need to brake

hard or consider an evasive action to avoid collision.

5.1.4 ACTUATOR:-

An actuator is a mechanical device for moving or controlling a mechanism or

system. It takes energy, usually transported by air, electric current, or liquid, and

converts that into some kind of motion.

7. DISADVANTAGES :-• Increased braking distances under some limited circumstances (snow, gravel, "soft"

surfaces).

• Creation of a "false sense of security" among drivers who do not understand the

operation, and limitations of ABS.

• The anti-lock brakes are more sensitive on the damper condition. the influence of the

worn components on the performance of the vehicle with anti-lock brakes is more

significant than without anti-lock brakes, the stopping distance with defective shocks

is by meters longer for the presented simulation scenario .
