  • Patent number: 6705685
    Abstract: A system for controlling the traction slip of a vehicle including identifying a start situation with a high coefficient of friction uphill or with a heavy vehicle load, and once the start situation is identified and traction slip prevails, reducing a brake control intervention and/or increasing the nominal engine torque.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6533367
    Abstract: A method for controlling the traction slip of a vehicle on a roadway with sidewise different coefficients of friction includes the following steps: identifying a driving situation on a roadway with sidewise different coefficients of friction and, when the driving situation is identified and traction slip is encountered on both wheels, decreasing the brake pressure of the driven wheel on the low coefficient-of-friction side. A device for controlling the traction slip of a vehicle on a roadway with sidewise different coefficients of friction includes a determining device for determining a driving situation on a roadway with sidewise different coefficients of friction, and a brake actuation control which decreases the brake pressure of the driven wheel on the low coefficient-of-friction side when the driving situation is identified and traction slip is encountered on both wheels.
