It's no worries if you lose power with electronic breaks! As Audi describes, if you lose power, a check valve means your electronically controlled breaks are now regular old hydraulic brakes, and your foot does all the work again. Phew! 😅 And, electronic brakes have the added benefit of being able to stop with the brake fluid boiling, as they can pressurize the "air" enough to stop the car, versus a brake pedal which just hits the floor, and then you're done. Neat!1!1

I like the title and the explanation of the basics. There's even more to it: In May 2004, Mercedes recalled 680,000 vehicles to fix their complex brake-by-wire system. Then, in March 2005, 1.3 million cars were recalled, partly because of further unspecified problems with the Sensotronic Brake Control system. If the electrical break failed, they had a classical foot driven hydraulik backup, but only to the front wheels and without the typical vacuum servo assistance. That happening without pre warning resulted in way longer brake distances, subsequently leading to some accidants of almost brand new, well maintained upper class cars. In 2006 they discontinued the system in the E- and S-class limousines. Secondly: There were cars, that had no direct hydraulic connection from the break pedal Movement and no feedback at all: The Citroen DS and CX upper class cars had just a foot controlled, spring loaded hydraulic valve for breaking. A single belt driven pump provided hydraulic pressure for the breaks, the clutch, hydropneumatic suspension including the dampeners and for the power steering, that also had no mechanical connection to the steering gear (but a mechanical fallback with extremely wide dead clearance) . Buyers loved the lack of feedback, testers hated it. They sold 2.5 Million from 1955 to 1991, not so bad for upper class cars of legendary complexity and maintanance costs. If the pump failed, there were several storage tanks, that provided full usability for some more minutes. For example after 20 times of breaking, it stopped working and you were left alone with the mechanical handbreak with litereally coin sized brake pads (on the Citroen CX). The system worked surprisingly well, the safety record was flawless.

I think I remember an F-22 test pilot giving a lecture and mentioning the new fighter jets had the control stick not move at all, it would sense the pressure the pilot exerted on it, and how it was really weird for the human pilots and they had to design sticks that moved.
@Captain_Irk
@Captain_Irk 8 ай бұрын
I may be incorrect, but I think this was something first tried in the F-16, and since humans are better at knowing the position of our limbs than how much pressure we're exerting with them, they found it was more intuitive to build some movement back in to avoid feedback loops of pilots overcorrecting errors. I wonder if the f-22 control stick was identical! My source is "The insane engineering of the F-16" by Real Engineering, around 22:30.

Regenerative braking can actually be done so well, that you hardly use the regular brakes at all. In fact, if you press the brake, it will also regen brake first. One pedal driving is a common thing in EVs. You are just using the actual brake calipers when you have to brake more in unexpected situations, or you just driving faster, requiring more brake power to stop for the red light.
@drazenradosevic7467
@drazenradosevic7467 2 жыл бұрын
Agree to that. Regen braking (especially if you have front motor) can cover 99% of traffic situations. New trend for electric commuter cars is to reduce max speed anyway, so all that means that brake overheating will not be an issue. Ventilated disk will not be necessary, brake calipers and pads can be also made smaller and lighter. Additional bonus is the reduced unsprung weight... Of course, with performance cars, it is another cup of coffee :-)

The Nissan Leaf does this in an admirably simple way: the master cylinder is just set back about an inch and a half from the pedal arm, so the first 2 inches or so of pedal travel are just an input to the computer asking for regen braking, but if you push further, you hit the master cylinder and apply the friction brakes. so even with no power (12V and traction battery disconnected) you still have conventional braking to stop the car. The power steering works the same way, just with an electric pump instead of a belt driven one.

Indeed… I had an SM, which had the same system. These cars had a high-pressure hydraulic pump that actually supplied the pressure. Your foot on the “mushroom” simply opened a valve. Yes, we got used to it, but these were by no means sports cars… It is the equivalent of a steering system that gives very little road feel. There was an accumulator in the system, so that you still had a pressure reserve in the event of the engine quitting on you… which the Maserati V6 had a anasty habit of doing, in very bad ways…

No no. Audi's ebrake system is not the system he was talking about when he meant "fully electronic". He was talking about an actually fully electronic system with no mechanical parts, where an electric motor would clamp your brake caliper onto the rotor. The current braking method does have issues with leaks and whatnot. But nothing that happens usually within the first 5-10 years of the vehicles life span.

Brakes will always need a backup system. As in power brakes and power steering. Parts critical for the safety just need a working manual override. BTW, about no power situation: it's actually solvable. Think of the brakes that are "normally closed" and you need to actually provide power to lose them. The hard part is to make it energy efficient and fast at the same time.

I had my brake line burst on my Silverado coming up to a red light @ 50MPH. F'n terrifying. Was able to jump on the shoulder and pump what was left of the brakes before hitting intersection. So hydraulic isn't perfect either. For electronic brakes, you would absolutely need some form of fail-safe system like railway air brakes. So that if all power is cut, the brakes are applied. An example could be a spring powered clamping brake pad that's held open when there's power but clamps disk if power is lost. Would really suck having car suddenly stop by itself but way better that suddenly zero brakes, I can attest to that personally.

Also, You know how most older cars have a parking brake in the form of a large lever instead of a button on some cars? That's not only to keep your car still when It's parked. It's also a last ditch emergency brakes, connected to your brakes directly by steel wire. Also another nice thing with manuals, you can downshift to PREEETTY high RPM's over what you usually use on a normal car and then use the handbrake to catch the last bit of braking.

This happened to my wife while descending a very long hill. She had to use the EMERGENCY brake to stop the car. Thank god that wasn't electric, but an old-fashioned cable/handle type.

A lot of cars already use electric assist for the brakes. The Prius has used that since it was released in the US in like 2000. It’s backup in case the vehicles 12V system fails is a large bank of capacitors in the HCU that gives you enough electricity for about 5-10 stops without the 12v system, so similar to a vacuum assisted brake system. After that, you can still use the brakes, but they’ll be unassisted, so it takes a lot more force (again, the same as stopping in a car with vacuum assisted brakes if the vacuum supply is interrupted, or hydro boost for that matter) Tesla uses a fully hydraulic brake system with an electric assist. As far as EVs go, the Tesla brake system is really basic because they don’t do any sort of blended braking (I.e regenerative braking that is requested by the brake pedal). When you step on the brake pedal in a Tesla, you aren’t adding any regen braking, your only adding friction braking. This is very different than any other EV, for better or for worse. I’m not sure there is a compelling enough reason to replace hydraulic brakes entirely with electric yet. The reasons you gave don’t work for me. ADAS systems can apply the brakes either by using a servo on the brake pedal (this is what Tesla uses, you can actually watch the brake pedal move when it activates, some others use it as well) or for emergency braking systems, the ABS system is used to apply strong pressure to the brakes (that’s why ABS systems have pumps, even back before ADAS was a thing). As far as different brake modes, eh no. That’s not needed. The only reason I can think of to replace the hydraulic system would be to eliminate hydraulic failures (especially from rust) but electronic systems have failures as well, including rust failures. An electric system may not need fluid services, but the maintenance would move somewhere else, like cleaning/lubing the brake servos.

I drove a 2020 Camry since it was new until last week. I also have a 2007 Yaris with about 125,000 miles. Yes, of course Camry hybrid with CVT would get up and go in an instant. They both do about the same mileage. Here are things the Camry has randomly done: Panic stop if a car made a slow right turn in front of me. Flutter the brakes nearly off for just a small cold patch. Let the brakes off when I turned into an uphill parking spot (very exhilarating!). The steering was always just a bit behind me moving the wheel, and at high speed had a whiff of a tendency to keep making tiny adjustments. The traction control would over-react on rain-soaked or snowy roads. The door locks would sometimes decide I didn't get to the car fast enough and relock it just as I touched the handle, and then require a manual unlock. When powering down, I had to wait two seconds before opening the door to avoid an annoying chiming. My one annoyance with the Yaris: in 1st gear it's easy to spin the tires. Go figure.

Big trucks and buses normally don't use hydraulic brakes, they use air brakes. But they do it with with reverse operation, when you brake you release air from the system and mechanical springs do the braking and when you release the pedal air is pumped into the system to overcome the forse of the springs. This means that if you have a failure in the air system and lose pressure the truck or bus will automatically brake because there is no air pressure anymore to hold the springs. This is also the reason you often see trucks standing with the engine running for some time after they start in the morning, the air system has lost pressure overnight and the brakes are stuck until the car has build up pressure to release them.

I think one way to have fully electronic brakes is to have 1) The tactile feedback system you described. 2) A fail safe system that'll automatically acticate the brakes in the event of a loss of power. A way you could potentially accomplish this is by adding an E-Brake Solenoid or EBS to two or all the caliper assemblies. This solenoid system, when energied, will release a separate brake pad set that is spring loaded with enough force to bring the car to a halt as if you were stopping for a stop sign. By releasing the pads, you'll put the spring set under tension until the vehicle is shut down. Once it is, the solenoid systen will shut down. Releasing the springs, and deploying the brakes. Should a power failure occur in the vehicle, the solenoids will lose power, the springs will release and deploy the brakes, again, with enough force to stop rhe vehicle as if you were approaching a stop sign. If the brake system fails to power up, the brakes will not release. This could also be used for anti-theft. Say someone tried to break into the car. The car could detect this, and shut itself down, there by activating the solenoid brakes, and locking the car down in that spot. I'd love to hear y'all's feedback and opinions. So if you can think of a more efficient way, or may want to change my idea up a bit. I'd love to hear your suggestions.

Ok, counter point: you are driving and ended without power. Maybe a battery issue, maybe you forgot to charge the car the day before, maybe your kid was playing in your car without you knowing and consumed most of the battery, it doesn't matter... Now you have a car with the breaks activated in the middle of the street, let's say at night. You have no lights to indicate that there's a car on the street and now you can't push the car to the side of the road, because the breaks are purely electronic and are only released when the car has power. Do you see the problem here? At the end of the day, cars can have electronic breaks, but they will also need a mechanical backup for when it fails.

@@aquelegabriel I agree, but the majority of EV'S out there, like the Chevrolet Volt, have their light and lamp system running on the 12 volt power system powered by the readily replaceable 12 volt classic car battery. One thing that can be done is we could set a system running on the 12 volt system that monitors the condition of the EBS. If they are not energized, the 12 volt system will ignite the brake lamps, and (if wired to do so) could even auto start the hazzard lamps. I see your presented problem, but if you take a look at every different EV in the market (unless you're TESLA) chances are, you'll find a standard 12 volt automotive power system that can be used to not only "pull in" the high-voltage contactors, but also run the head and brake lamps, as well as the blinker interrupter and lamp system, AND the EBS. I hope this helps out with your dilemma. Thanks for giving me your input! I'm always open for suggestions.

Hey Guys! Greetings from Germany ❤️ I drive an 2014 Volvo V60 D6 PIHybrid, and it’s got an unusual brake, too. I am pretty sure it’s partially electric, that it has an extra cylinder that engages when the car is running that offsets the reception-distance of the normal hydraulic brakes and thus creates room for the electronic reception, you really can feel the brake getting lighter when ‚booting‘ the car, hehe. When on, it recovers energy over the three phase motor gradually, within the won room, which slows down substantially but really really feels light on the pedal, and you don’t feel the hydraulic brakes engaging if you brake harder most of the times. Overall it does feel like nothing I’ve ever driven before, it does take a while to get used to, but proved to be very precise and controllable in emergency- braking situations. Out of indescribable circumstances, hehe, I know for a fact that if turned off the car and brake releases the extra cylinder an the brake returns to a Normal one. I didn’t research far more than over my car regarding that, and i‘m In Electronics, Not cars, so I don’t know the definitions, but is there something similar you ever came across? Is this a general branch of brakes?

After driving an 80's BMW w/a 5MT and an LSD for 11 years (w/o ABS) going to a 2013 335i w/a 6MT. BMW really did a good job of robbing all of the old mechanical feels from the modern automobile. It's a nice car and it's fast but I miss the real feeling of the gas pedal, the steering, the clutch w/o a delay valve, and the lack of fancy traction control. I'm more than happy with an engine, RWD, and an LSD. Modulating the brake pedal becomes second nature after a while.

Fiat used a similar concept in the electric 500e. It had an electrically boosted brake that engaged under 7mph or in an instance of hard braking. Above 7mph pressing the brake pedal actually varies the level regeneration of the electric motor, press hard on the brakes and the brake pads would be engaged. The system worked well as an alternative to one pedal driving by most electric cars. There was a slight jerk as the normal brakes came on at 7mph, but after a few days you get used to it and compensate.

Interesting video!!! What is even more interesting is the narrater missed the fact that many vehicles still use mechanical brake actuation... Bicycles & motorcycles used mechanically operated brakes far longer than than many 4+wheel vehicles, and several small vehicles still use mechanically actuated brakes, and they ALSO used an advantage to increase the braking surface application by using leverage. Most cars & light trucks use the familiar hydraulic actuated brakes, and most designs seem to work well... Several large and medium trucks use compressed air to operate the service brakes... There are quite a few differences with those designs, as compared with the conventional hydraulic brakes. And several other types of braking systems exist for various other vehicles... The things that I noticed that mention WHY electric brakes are scary, is because they use a computer to link the driver to the actual mechanical brake actuation system. Personally, for things that are as important as brakes, I tend to favor the simplest designs available... Much less to go wrong... This is WHY I would NOT want a computer to make the decision for me, of how long the brakes need to be applied, or how much force to put into them....

Trailer brakes are 100% electric, and in 8 years of working on them I’ve yet to see one fail due to an issue not related to lack of maintenance. An argument can be made that they’re a supplemental system, however you’re supposed to slow your truck with the trailer as the primary brake force, not the other way around. They work and they’ve been around in the current form (an electromagnet with a wear surface “shorts” to the drum causing the shoes to engage the drum) for literally ages.

I have yet to see a semi-trailer use electronic brakes, and I'd be freaked out if I saw them, considering how many electronic issues I see on many trailers. And that's with heavier gauge wire and connections. They still wear out and get corroded. Yea, the air brakes systems on trailers fail sometimes, too, but there is a failsafe where if pressure drops too low, it actuates a mechanical brake that stops it.

Those brakes work fine on a trailer because the delay and lack of modulation doesn’t really matter. Basically there’s not really a smooth way to engage them so they delay till slack it taken up and then apply. You can vary how hard they apply, but it isn’t nearly as sensitive as hydraulic brakes. And, I’ve seen plenty of electric trailer brakes fail. Wiring gets damaged. They get overheated. They get worn out. Springs fail and everything comes apart inside the drum. I guess you can blame everything on lack of maintenance, but failing is failing.

As an occasional DIY home mechanic, I can inspect my braking system pretty thoroughly for any minor leaks that might get worse, for corrosion that might be forming, for any abnormal wear/abrasion, for condition and level of the fluid, etc. But I cannot inspect the smoke inside an electronic control module to make sure it's still in there. This speaks to the "consumer confidence" part of the equation.

Jeremiah, you hit the nail on the head in the last few minutes of this video. When power is lost, then what? But here is another can of worms to open and it has to do with most vehicles now with electric steering. I worked at a car auction and cars with weak batteries or poor connections or a bad steering rack will cause the electric steering to lock up, and I mean lock up completely. When this happens, you cannot steer the car at all, unlike hydraulic steering where you can at least steer with some muscle to avoid a collision. With electric steering, you won't turn that wheel at all, which means a serious safety fault that nobody talks about. If not for quick thinking and immediate braking, I would almost certainly have hit another car. I think loss of power in electric steering should be talked about considering most vehicles have it. Don't think would I ever want a car with it. Like your presentation. Peace. Own '04 Vibe GT, '85 944, '75 Fiat 124 Coupe.
