- FIG. 5 is a diagram showing the braking force according to the retarder and the auxiliary brake used.
- the retarder 20 is an electromagnetic retarder, and the braking force can be adjusted substantially continuously by the duty ratio in increments of 1%.
- the retarder 20 and the first auxiliary brake 11 are driven.
- the braking force of the first auxiliary brake 11 is constant, the first auxiliary brake 11
- the duty ratio of the retarder 20 is calculated, and the retarder 20 is driven.
- the retarder 20 is controlled according to the braking force of the first auxiliary brake 11. Since the power decreases, even if the deceleration ⁇ changes from less than Th1 to Th1 or more, the braking force does not change abruptly and changes continuously.
- the braking force of the first auxiliary brake 11 and the second auxiliary brake 12 is increased. Accordingly, the braking force of the retarder 20 is reduced, so even if the deceleration rate ⁇ changes from less than Th2 to Th2 or more, the braking force does not change rapidly but changes continuously. Even when the deceleration rate ⁇ changes from less than Th3 to Th3 or more, the braking force does not change rapidly but changes continuously. Although not shown in FIG. 5, even when the deceleration rate ⁇ changes from less than Th4 to more than Th4, the braking force does not change abruptly and changes continuously.
- the retarder ECU 3 may determine that the retarder 20 is not normal due to the retarder 20 itself or an external factor for the retarder 20. In this case, since the vehicle cannot be braked by the retarder 20, the retarder ECU 3 transmits a failure status signal to the inter-vehicle distance control ECU 2. When receiving the failure status signal, the inter-vehicle control ECU 2 drives the auxiliary brakes 11, 12, 13 or the service brake 14 to compensate for the braking force of the retarder 20 and performs deceleration.
- the retarder 20 capable of continuously adjusting the braking force is driven, and when further deceleration is necessary, it is added to the retarder 20 according to the deceleration ⁇ .
- the auxiliary brake is driven.
- the retarder 20 can continuously adjust the braking force, when only the retarder 20 is driven, the vehicle is rapidly decelerated by continuously adjusting the necessary braking force. There is nothing to do.
- driving the auxiliary brake by reducing the braking force of the retarder 20 according to the braking force of the driven auxiliary brake, the host vehicle is not decelerated suddenly by the driving of the auxiliary brake.
- the vehicle speed of the host vehicle does not change greatly, and as a result, it is not necessary to repeat acceleration / deceleration, so that the host vehicle does not travel in a wavy manner. Therefore, fuel efficiency can be improved and passenger discomfort can be reduced.
- the engine brake, the engine retarder and the shift down retarder are used as the first, second and third auxiliary brakes 11, 12 and 13, respectively.
- the first, second, and third auxiliary brakes 11, 12, and 13 may be arbitrary brakes.
- the braking force of the auxiliary brakes 11, 12, 13 is increased in the order of the first auxiliary brake 11, the second auxiliary brake 12, and the third auxiliary brake 13, but the magnitude of the braking force should be taken into consideration.
- the order of driving the first, second and third auxiliary brakes 11, 12, 13 may be set.
