Claim Text:
1. A brake control system driven by an electric motor and configured to brake a vehicle by not only controlling an amount of regenerative braking by the electric motor but also controlling friction braking devices which are provided individually at wheels and which each have a friction lining which moves upon receipt of a hydraulic pressure, the brake control system comprising: a slip amount detection unit configured to detect an amount of slip of each of the wheels which are provided on the vehicle; and a regenerative slip control unit configured to determine that the wheels are slipping when a detection value of the slip amount detection unit exceeds a slip threshold during a regenerative braking by the electric motor, and execute repeatedly a slip restricting control in which an amount of regenerative braking is reduced by a predetermined amount and thereafter, the resulting reduced amount of regenerative braking is held for a predetermined period of time, wherein the slip restricting control unit sets the predetermined reduction amount by which the amount of regenerative braking is reduced when the wheels are detected as slipping larger than a predetermined reduction amount by which the amount of regenerative braking is reduced in the slip restricting control which is executed subsequently.
