DESIGN AND FABRICATION OF EPBS (ELECTRONIC PULSE BREAKING SYSTEM) FOR TRAILERS

Abstract

The Electronic Pulse Braking system is electric brake controls for vehicles where the rate of vehicle deceleration is automatically sensed to produce a pulsed electric brake actuation of the brakes of the vehicle. The Electronic Pulse Braking system includes a braking ECU on each trailer and a communication interface being provided so that the braking ECU on a trailer and the braking ECU on a second trailer are able to communicate with one another. A control system is incorporated into the braking equipment of a Vehicle to Provide a trailer braking Command Signal the respective braking ECU on the first and second trailer receive an input from a respective sensor on the first and second trailer adapted to detect lateral acceleration or Wheel speed in the event that one of the sensors detects lateral acceleration and a Wheel speed indicative of a loss of stability, the sensor generates a signal for actuating stability control. Which signal is passed via the communication interface to the braking ECU on the other trailer, so that the other trailer can actuate stability control? In this present work the effort has been made to introduce the EBS system in the trailer of the vehicle for the uneven road surface conditions and visualize the impacts theoretically
