  • Patent number: 10723332
    Abstract: A braking device for a vehicle includes a plurality of braking force generators; a steering assist device; a yaw rate detecting unit; and a control device. The control device is configured to perform control such that, in a case where the plurality of braking force generators perform a braking operation and there is a malfunctioning braking force generator, braking forces of the plurality of braking force generators other than the malfunctioning braking force generator are maintained or increased when an acquired value of an actual yaw rate acquired from the yaw rate detecting unit is equal to or less than a reference value, and a steering torque is applied to a steering system in a direction in which the actual yaw rate decreases when the acquired value of the actual yaw rate is larger than the reference value.

  • Publication number: 20180281761
    Abstract: A brake device for a vehicle includes: braking devices provided corresponding to right/left wheels, respectively, the braking devices being configured to generate braking forces by pressing forces according to a depression amount of a pedal; a wheel speed sensor configured to detect rotational speeds of the wheels; a pressing force sensor configured to detect the pressing forces; and a control device configured to control the braking force generating devices. The control device is configured to acquire the rotational speeds and the pressing forces in a state where the braking device is performing braking, specify deceleration, based on the acquired rotational speeds, and specify the loads that are supported by the wheels, based on the specified deceleration and the acquired pressing forces and controls the pressing forces corresponding to the right/left wheels such that a difference in deceleration between the right and left wheels becomes smaller, based on the loads.
