Abstract:
1. An anti-skid braking system for a wheeled vehicle comprising: at least two wheels; each of said at least two wheels including a slip indicator for comparing wheel velocity of a corresponding one of said at least two wheels with a reference velocity of the vehicle, and generating a slip condition signal indicating a slip condition if the wheel velocity is lower than the reference velocity of the vehicle, wherein one of said at least two wheels for which said slip condition signal first indicates a slip condition is a lead wheel, and the other of said at least two wheels is at least one follower wheel; a first control means configured to control skid on each of the at least two wheels in unison; a second control means configured to control skid on each of the at least two wheels individually; and a logic circuit configured to receive said slip condition signal from each of said at least two wheels as a function of said signals and to activate one of the first control means and the second control means and to deactivate the other of the first control means and the second control means responsive to said slip condition signal from each of said at least two wheels.
