Monitoring device for an antilocking brake control system
First Claim
1. In the combination of an antilocking control system, including a plurality of different electrical components, for wheel brakes of a vehicle, and a monitoring device for the electrical components or groups of electrical components in said antilocking brake control system, said monitoring device including respective switching means, each connected to an associated component or group of components, for monitoring the components and for generating a signal at a respective output upon the occurrence of a malfunction, and a memory arrangement for storing any such generated signal;
- the improvement wherein;
said switching means are associated with and monitor a plurality of different type electrical components or groups of electrical components which are located at correspondingly different points of the antilocking brake control system for malfunction; and
said memory arrangement includes memory means, having a plurality of inputs, for providing at least a number of memory states which corresponds to the number of components or groups of components to be monitored, and circuit means for interconnecting the outputs of said switching means and the inputs of said memory means in such a manner that, upon occurrence of a signal indicating a malfunction, the memory state of said memory arrangement which is associated with the one of said switching means producing said signal indicating a malfunction will be actuated.
