20080245597 | Braking Systems - A reverse braking system for a commercial vehicle including sensors ( | 10-09-2008 |
20090038873 | Method And Device For Controlling Automatic Emergency Braking - A method and a device for controlling automatic emergency braking of a motor vehicle to reduce the severity of a collision of a vehicle with an object, the position and/or speed of the object with respect to the host vehicle being determined via an object detection device, and this information being sent to a collision detection device which ascertains whether a collision with an object is imminent and, on detecting a collision, triggers emergency braking and ascertains a collision instant, emergency braking being terminated after the period of time until the determined collision instant has elapsed. | 02-12-2009 |
20100006363 | Vehicle Multi-Stage Integrated Brake Assist for a Collision Preparation System - A motor vehicle multi-stage integrated brake assist (MSIBA) system, which can provide at least one brake assist level of a plurality of predetermined levels of brake assist (i.e., deceleration) less than or greater than the required amount of braking (i.e., deceleration) calculated by the MSIBA to avoid a collision with an obstacle at the time the driver initiates braking, but allows the driver to increase or remove the provided predetermined level of brake assist. | 01-14-2010 |
20100300794 | METHOD FOR ADJUSTING A BRAKING SYSTEM IN A VEHICLE IN THE EVENT OF A COLLISION - In a method for adjusting a braking system in a vehicle, a collision of the vehicle is detected and a driver-independent brake intervention is performed. In a first step, after the collision a check is performed to see whether the wheel speed of a wheel is reduced, for example, through a jamming in the wheel housing, in which case in a second step at least one second wheel in the vehicle is decelerated in order to prevent a uncontrolled swerving of the vehicle. | 12-02-2010 |
20180022327 | VEHICLE SPEED MANAGEMENT APPARATUS AND VEHICLE SPEED MANAGEMENT METHOD | 01-25-2018 |

20120205177 | Golf cart safety apparatus - A golf cart safety apparatus in accordance with the principles of the present invention reduces the incidence of injured protruding limbs A safety pedal is provided that prevents the golf cart from operating unless engaged. The safety pedal comprises a hinge, a “kill switch”, and a platform upon which an occupant's foot can rest. The hinge is secured to a floor of the golf cart and the platform. The “kill switch”, which prevents the golf cart from operating unless depressed, is operably associated with the platform. Because the foot of the occupant must engage the safety pedal in order to disable the “kill switch”, the occupant's leg must be properly positioned inside the golf cart. Thus, a golf cart safety apparatus in accordance with the principles of the present invention reduces the incidences of golf cart injuries. | 08-16-2012 |
20160375902 | SAFETY SYSTEM FOR VEHICLE BACKOVER INCIDENTS - A safety system is provided that will (i) operate automatically, regardless of distraction or error by the driver or the backover victim; (ii) operate unaffected by the blindspots that block the driver's view or background noise that block audible alarms for the driver or the backover victim; (iii) operate through an external activation, intentional or unintentional, by the potential backover victim or passerby; and/or (iv) remove driver discretion by causing the vehicle to stop upon activation of the safety system by the potential backover victim or passerby. | 12-29-2016 |
