METHOD FOR DETERMINING VEHICLE BRAKING DISTANCE AND DEVICE FOR ITS MEASUREMENT Russian patent published in 2008 - IPC G01M17/07 B60T17/22 G01L5/28 

FIELD: transport.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers to automotive electronics and may be used in automatic systems for determining vehicle braking distance. Method consists in choosing preset braking regime by preset duration of pressing on brake pedal and preset dynamics of pressing. Control of correspondence to chosen braking regime is performed by comparison of current values of duration of pressing on brake pedal and dynamics of pressing with preset values, signal is transmitted to indicator of braking regime correspondence in case of correspondence to chosen braking regime, signal is transmitted to indicator of full braking distance and braking distance at skidding zone in case of correspondence to chosen braking regime and full stop of vehicle. Device additionally contains fourth and fifth elements I and first and second contact brake pedal pressure sensors, braking regime evaluation block, and indicator of correspondence to braking regime. First and second inputs of braking regime evaluation block are connected with outputs of first and second contact sensors, and output is connected simultaneously with input of braking regime correspondence indicator and second inputs of fourth and fifth elements I, first inputs of which are connected respectively with first and second outputs of block determining braking distance, and outputs are connected respectively with inputs of indicator of braking distance at skidding zone, indicator of total braking distance.

EFFECT: increasing of reliability of measurement of braking distance.
