What is the principle of vehicle anti-skid control?
1 Answers
Anti-skid control primarily functions to handle continuous steering during emergency obstacle avoidance. When performing emergency evasive maneuvers, the anti-skid system intervenes to increase the driving torque of the wheels. When a tailspin tendency occurs, the system applies braking to the opposite wheel to reduce rotation, thereby helping the vehicle follow the driver's steering intentions. Below are the key functions of anti-skid control: 1. When tires are about to lock, the system performs "mechanical cadence braking" with hundreds of brake applications within one second. 2. It allows the vehicle to maintain steering control through the wheel even during full braking. 3. When drive wheels slip, the engine ECU reduces throttle intake, lowering engine speed to decrease power output. 4. Installing anti-skid systems can effectively reduce fatal traffic accidents by 43%. 5. Making anti-skid systems standard equipment can reduce passenger car single-vehicle accidents by 34%, rollover accidents by 71%, and SUV single-vehicle accidents by up to 59%.
