1.0 ABS anti-lock braking
ABS anti-lock braking systems are closed- loop control devices within the braking system which prevent wheel lock-up during braking and, as a result, retain the vehicles steerability and stability.
ABS Components:
1.0 - Wheel Speed Sensors 2.0 - Electronic Control Unit 3.0 - Hydraulic Modulator 4.0 - Electric Circuit
Hydraulic Modulator:
The hydraulic modulator converts the ECU commands and, independently of the driver, uses them to control the pressure in the wheel brakes via solenoid valves. It acts as the hydraulic link between the Brake master cylinder and the wheel-brake cylinders and is located in the engine compartment so that the hydraulic lines for the brake master Cylinder and to the wheel brake cylinders can be kept.
Electric Circuit:
Operation Of ABS:
The Theory behind anti-lock brakes is simple.A Skidding wheel (where the tire contact Patch is sliding relative to the road) has less traction than a non-skidding wheel.
The Benefits of anti-lock brakes : 1- The vehicle will stop faster 2- The driver will be able to steer while he stops.
Theoretical Work:
Experimental Work: It consists of: 1.0 - ABS Simulation Model I 2.0 - ABS Simulation Model II
ABS Simulation I:
A) Purpose
B) Components: 1.0 - Mechanical system
A) Purpose :
Simulate the action of a true system by modeling the action of a true wheel
Mechanical System:
A) DC Motor B) Gear
C) Variable Resistance
A) Dc-Motor :
Specifications:
Power = 0.125 HP Voltage Range = 0 -12 Volts Maximum Current = 4.5 Amperes It Can Be Controlled By A Variable Resistance, which Control the current Input To The dc Motor So That We Can Control The Velocity
B) Gear:
A metallic gear used to cut the magnetic field of the magnetic backup to give pulses as an indication for velocity.
C) Variable Resistance: It is an adjustable resistance used to decrease the current going to motor so that the change in resistance control the angular velocity of the motor and the same time can stand the heat generated.
Electrical System: It's Composed of:1.0 - Electronic Control Unit 2.0 - Wheel Speed Sensors
It consists of a wheel tire interaction and that system is modeled by input values for the velocities, this input may be taken from excel program.
Hydraulic Modulator:
The hydraulic modulator converts the ECU commands and, independently of the driver, uses them to control the pressure in the wheel brakes via solenoid valves. It acts as the hydraulic link between the Brake master cylinder and the wheel-brake cylinders and is located in the engine compartment so that the hydraulic lines for the brake master Cylinder and to the wheel brake cylinders can be kept.
