1. A braking force control device comprising:

  • wheel speed detecting means for detecting a wheel speed of each wheel of a vehicle;

    road surface μ

    slope estimating means for, on the basis of the detected wheel speed, estimating, for each wheel a slope of a coefficient of friction μ

    between the wheel and a road surface as a road surface μ

    slope; and

    control means for, on the basis of the road surface μ

    slope estimated for each wheel by the road surface μ

    slope estimating means, adjusting a braking force for each wheel by controlling the braking force of each wheel.
