Abstract: A vehicle brake device includes a stroke simulator, a stroke sensor, and a brake start determination unit. The stroke simulator includes a cylinder, a piston, an orifice, and a pressure sensor. The cylinder defines a liquid pressure chamber to which a brake liquid is supplied via a fluid path. The piston slides in the cylinder by the brake liquid supplied to the liquid pressure chamber. The orifice is formed in the fluid path. The pressure sensor detects a reaction pressure. The stroke sensor is configured to detect the stroke. The brake start determination unit determines an operation of the brake operation member has been started in a case where the reaction pressure detected by the pressure sensor becomes equal to or greater than a first threshold value and the stroke detected by the stroke sensor becomes equal to or greater than a second threshold value.

Abstract: A control mode of speed control includes a first control mode in which an actual speed is caused to follow a target speed through active use of a brake and a second control mode in which the actual speed is caused to follow the target speed while use of the brake is suppressed. An autonomous driving system changes a threshold value to a value larger than a value in the first control mode when the control mode is switched from the first control mode to the second control mode, and changes the threshold value to a value smaller than a value in the second control mode when the control mode is switched from the second control mode to the first control mode.

Abstract: The braking device for vehicles includes a reduction amount setting part for setting the amount by which to reduce the revolution of a pump motor during maintenance or reduction of controllable differential pressure so that the reduction amount decreases as the probability increases of needing to discharge the brake fluid by pumps, during a period from when a brake controller begins reducing the revolution until the lapse of prescribed time.

Abstract: A vehicle control device includes an automatic driving control device configured to execute automatic driving control on a vehicle, and an anti-lock braking system configured to control a longitudinal slip ratio of wheels of the vehicle to be equal to or smaller than a threshold during braking of the vehicle. The automatic driving control to be executed by the automatic driving control device includes braking force control for changing a braking force to be applied to the wheels of the vehicle depending on a target deceleration set without being based on a deceleration request by a driver. The automatic driving control device is configured to, when a failure of the anti-lock braking system is detected during execution of the automatic driving control on the vehicle, set the target deceleration in the braking force control to a value equal to or smaller than an upper limit deceleration value.

Abstract: A braking control device includes an upstream mechanism control unit, a determination unit, and a control unit. The upstream mechanism control unit is configured to feedback control the upstream mechanism in such a manner that a detected hydraulic pressure detected by a hydraulic pressure sensor is brought to an upstream target hydraulic pressure. The hydraulic pressure sensor detects a hydraulic pressure of the hydraulic pressure circuit. The determination unit is configured to determine, based on the detected hydraulic pressure by the hydraulic pressure sensor, whether hydraulic pressure hunting is occurring. The control unit is configured to control the downstream mechanism based on the upstream target hydraulic pressure and the target wheel pressure in a case where the determination unit determines that the hydraulic pressure hunting is occurring.

Abstract: A predetermined relationship among various loading states, stability factor (Kh) of a vehicle and lateral acceleration (Gy) of the vehicle is stored in a storage device (30A) as a reference relationship (i.e. a map). Information regarding a lateral acceleration (Gy) of the vehicle is acquired using a lateral acceleration sensor (40). An estimated value of the stability factor (Kh) of the vehicle is calculated on the basis of vehicle travelling data when turning. A loading state of the vehicle is estimated on the basis of the area in which the estimated value of the stability factor and the lateral acceleration of the vehicle which is at the same point in time as the vehicle travelling data which were provided for the calculation of the estimated value belong in the reference relationship.
