  • Patent number: 5284385
    Abstract: Antilock control system wherein pressure at the front and rear axles is controlled in cycles which each include a pressure reduction followed by a build-up of the brake pressure in pulses having holding phases therebetween. When a build-up of brake pressure at the front axle exceeds a predetermined time, the rate of build-up at the rear axle is reduced. The system prevents too much pressure build-up at the rear axle during the dynamic load transfer which occurs when braking a vehicle having a high center of gravity relative to its wheel base.
