Braking method for a vehicle
First Claim
1. A braking method for a vehicle, for use as a safety measure and replacement function in the event that a working brake system of the vehicle fails,in which the vehicle is braked by a transmission via engagement of frictional shift elements until the vehicle is substantially at rest, and a combination of frictional shift elements engaged when the working brake system of the vehicle fails does not correspond to a shift logic of a gear during normal driving operation of the vehicle, the method comprising the steps of;
- engaging at least one additional frictional shift element of the transmission, starting from a gear engaged at a time when the vehicle'"'"'s working brake system fails in such manner that drive wheels of the vehicle undergo one of a maximum or a specified braking, but such that the vehicle'"'"'s drive wheels are not locked while an actual speed of the vehicle is greater than a defined value,setting one of a shifting pressure or a torque of an additionally engaged first frictional shift element compared with the normal shift logic, with the set shifting pressure or torque being determined as a function of one or more of a brake pedal actuation force, a distance to another vehicle and an actual speed of the vehicle.

Abstract
A braking method for a vehicle is proposed as a safety measure and replacement function if the brake system fails, in particular the X-by-wire brake system of a motor vehicle, in which the vehicle is braked with the help of the transmission by a defined engagement of frictional shift elements until the vehicle comes to rest, such that the combination of frictional shift elements actuated when the vehicle'"'"'s working brake system fails does not correspond to the shift logic of a gear during normal driving operation of the vehicle.

9. A braking method for a vehicle having one of a change-under-load transmission, a continuously variable transmission, an automated shift transmission or a dual clutch transmission, in the event that a working brake system of the vehicle fails,
in which the vehicle is braked by a transmission by engagement of frictional shift elements until the vehicle is substantially at rest, and a combination of frictional shift elements engaged when the working brake system of the vehicle fails does not correspond to a shift logic of a gear during normal driving operation of the vehicle, the method comprising the steps of; -
starting from a gear engaged at a time when the vehicle'"'"'s working brake system fails, engaging at least one additional frictional shift element of the transmission in such manner that drive wheels of the vehicle undergo one of a maximum or a specified braking, but such that the vehicle'"'"'s drive wheels are not locked while an actual speed of the vehicle is greater than a defined value, setting one of a shifting pressure or a torque for an additional engaged first frictional shift element, compared with the normal shift logic, with the set shifting pressure or torque being determined as a function of one or more of a brake pedal actuation force, a distance to another vehicle and an actual speed of the vehicle.

10. A braking method for a vehicle, for use as a safety measure and replacement function in an event that a brake system of the vehicle fails, the vehicle is braked by a transmission by engagement of frictional shift elements until the vehicle is substantially at rest, and a combination of frictional shift elements engaged when the working brake system of the vehicle fails does not correspond to a shift logic of a gear during normal driving operation of the vehicle, the method comprising the steps of:
-
engaging at least one additional frictional shift element of the transmission, starting from a gear engaged at a time when the vehicle'"'"'s working brake system fails, in such manner that drive wheels of the vehicle undergo one of a maximum or a specified braking, but such that the vehicle'"'"'s drive wheels are not locked while an actual speed of the vehicle is greater than a defined value, setting one of a shifting pressure or a torque for an additionally engaged first frictional shift element, compared with the normal shift logic, with the set shifting pressure or toque being determined as a function of one or more of a brake pedal actuation force, a distance to another vehicle and an actual speed of the vehicle.
