  • Patent number: 12172642
    Abstract: A braking control apparatus includes a braking force control unit, a first abnormality detecting unit, a regenerative brake stopping unit, and a braking force compensating unit. The braking force control unit is configured to perform a braking force control by causing an engine brake, a regenerative brake, and a friction brake to operate in cooperation with each other. The regenerative brake stopping unit is configured to disconnect the regenerative brake from the braking force control, when an abnormality of the regenerative brake is detected by the first abnormality detecting unit. The braking force compensating unit is configured to perform a braking force compensation that utilizes the friction brake, from the detection of the abnormality of the regenerative brake until the regenerative brake is disconnected from the braking force control, by performing a feedback control on a deceleration rate at a time when the abnormality of the regenerative brake is detected.

  • Patent number: 12043305
    Abstract: A steering angle detecting apparatus includes a steering angle sensor and a diagnostic unit. The steering angle sensor includes two relative steering angle detectors and an absolute steering angle processor. The two relative steering angle detectors detect a plurality of two relative steering angles. The absolute steering angle processor calculates absolute steering angles. The diagnostic unit determines whether an angular signal indicating an absolute steering angle of the absolute steering angles is outputted from the absolute steering angle processor. The diagnostic unit stores a latest absolute steering angle, determines which of the two relative steering angle detectors outputs one of the two relative steering angles, and, where one of the two relative steering angle detectors is determined as outputting the one of the two relative steering angles, update the latest absolute steering angle by adding outputted one of the two relative steering angles to the stored latest absolute steering angle.
