Brake control device for vehicles with bar handle
A brake control device for vehicles with bar handle includes: a wheel speed obtaining unit obtaining a speed of a wheel; an estimated vehicle body speed setting unit setting an estimated vehicle body speed; a control unit performing fluid pressure control to raise, reduce or hold a brake fluid pressure; and a bank angle obtaining unit obtaining a bank angle. The estimated vehicle body setting unit sets a limit value of a change amount when the estimated vehicle body speed decreases at a time of braking of the vehicle, and sets the estimated vehicle body speed based on the limit value when a deceleration amount of the speed of the wheel on a braked side is larger than the limit value, and the estimated vehicle body speed setting unit corrects the limit value so that the change amount decreases as the obtained bank angle increases.
1. A brake control device for vehicles with bar handle, the brake control device comprising:
a wheel speed obtaining unit which is configured to obtain a speed of a wheel of the vehicle;
an estimated vehicle body speed setting unit which is configured to set an estimated vehicle body speed based on the speed of the wheel;
a control unit which is configured to perform fluid pressure control to raise, reduce or hold a brake fluid pressure that acts on a wheel brake of the vehicle based on the speed of the wheel and the estimated vehicle body speed; and
a bank angle obtaining unit which is configured to obtain a bank angle of the vehicle, wherein
the estimated vehicle body speed setting unit is configured to set a limit value of a change amount of a wheel deceleration when the estimated vehicle body speed decreases at a time of braking of the vehicle, and set the estimated vehicle body speed based on the limit value when a deceleration amount of the speed of the wheel on a braked side is larger than the limit value, and
the estimated vehicle body speed setting unit is configured to correct the limit value so that the change amount decreases as the obtained bank angle increases.
2. The brake control device according to claim 1 , wherein
the estimated vehicle body speed setting unit does not correct the limit value until the bank angle reaches a predetermined threshold value.
3. The brake control device according to claim 1 , wherein
the estimated vehicle body speed setting unit is configured to increase a correction amount of the limit value as the bank angle increases.
4. The brake control device according to claim 2 , wherein
the estimated vehicle body speed setting unit is configured to increase a correction amount of the limit value as the bank angle increases.
