Abstract
A preselected parameter of the wheel brakes of a motor vehicle, to be equalized with respect to their braking force, is sensed. Such parameter is correlated with the amount of braking force being applied. A signal is generated by the preselected sensor, which is then used to control supplemental pressure-regulating valves, positioned in the brake pressure feed line to the respective wheel brakes. The parameter selected to be sensed can be, among other things, either the braking force or torque being applied or the wheel brake temperature.
