  • Brake system for rail cars, brake control device for rail car, and brake control method for rail cars
    Patent number: 9764745
    Abstract: Provided are a brake system, a brake device, and a method of controlling brakes for railroad cars in which control can be multiplexed with a simple configuration. In a brake system 1 for railroad cars includes brake control devices 11, 12, 13 provided in railroad cars 101, 102 103 respectively that form a unit 104. Each brake control device 10 (11, 12, 13) is capable of outputting information of the corresponding car (101, 102, 103) to the other brake control devices 10 through a transmission device 20. The brake control device 10 can calculate a total necessary braking force value BRA required for braking all of the cars 101, 102 103 using the information output from the other brake control devices 10 to the transmission device 20.
