  • Publication number: 20070260382
    Abstract: A control system having an electronically controllable drive train. A coordination level is assigned to a system control device in which set point values are generated from state variables of the vehicle and from driver's wishes and actuation signals for actuating actuators are generated therefrom. An execution level is subordinate to the coordination level and has actuators for executing the actuation signal. An axle electronic module activates at least one brake actuator assigned to the vehicle axle, and is arranged in the region of the vehicle axle. The axle electronic module is connected to the coordination level in order to transmit set point values, and is designed to determine actuation signals from the set point values in order to control the respective axle actuator. The axle electronic module is connected to a controllable differential lock in order to transmit the actuation signals.

  • Patent number: 7032981
    Abstract: A control system for a vehicle having an electronically actuated drive train includes a coordination level which is assigned to a system control device, and in which setpoint values are generated from state variables (ZG) of the vehicle and from driver's requests. Actuation signals for actuating actuators are generated from the latter. An execution level, which is subordinate to the coordination level, has actuators for executing the actuation signals. An axle electronic module for activating at least one brake actuator which is assigned to the chassis is arranged in the region of the steerable vehicle axle. The axle electronic module is connected to the coordination level in order to receive transmittal setpoint values, and determines actuation signals for actuating the respective axle actuator from the setpoint values. The axle electronic module is connected to an electronically actuated steering system for transmitting the actuation signals.

  • Patent number: 5564386
    Abstract: In a motorbrake arrangement for a Diesel engine which utilizes a high pressure fuel reservoir from which fuel is supplied to the injector of each of the various engine cylinders, and each of the cylinders includes a decompression valve which is hydraulically operated for decompression of gas compressed in the engine cylinder during the engine compression stroke, the decompression valve is operable by high pressure fuel admitted to the decompression valve through a control line from the high pressure fuel reservoir under the control of an electromagnetic valve arranged in the control line.

  • Patent number: 4377147
    Abstract: An internal combustion engine driven by a gaseous fuel, with quantity regulation in a lower load range and quality regulation in an upper load range. A gas pressure regulator is provided for controlling a gas flow to an air-gas mixer, with a throttle valve actuatable by an accelerator pedal being arranged in an intake line downstream of the air-gas mixer, whereby the gas pressure regulator is movable in a closing direction through a control line, by a diaphragm by vacuum prevailing in the intake line in a vicinity of the throttle valve. A control valve, influenced by the accelerator in the quality control range, is disposed in a control line. The control line branches off the intake line upstream of the throttle valve or off the air-gas mixer. A throughput or through-flow cross section in the control valve decreases with increasing loads in a direct relationship to a position of the accelerator until the control valve closes at full load.
