Inventor: KOULOMZIN DANIEL GEORGE
IPC: H04W4/02
Filed: 2013-02-14
Abstract: A first group of indications associated with a first group of modalities and a second group of indications associated with a second group of modalities are received by a computing device 230, the first and second group of indications associated with a first and second remote computing device respectively.

Title: Trailer-mounted hydraulic braking system
Inventor: DAVIS ROBERT CLIVE BROWNING
IPC: B60T8/32
Filed: 2013-11-05
Abstract: A trailer hydraulic braking system comprises a plurality of hydraulic actuators 10, 11, 12, 13 and a main hydraulic fluid conduit 16 connectable to a towing vehicle for actuation of the brakes. Distribution valves 14 distribute the fluid and braking effect to the trailer brakes. Load sensing valve (LSV) 15, connected to a load sensing mechanism of the trailer, modulates the hydraulic braking pressure. An anti-lock braking system (ABS) 20-24 is provided capable of reducing braking pressure to prevent wheel locking. In order to prevent wheel locking when ABS cannot operate (e.g. because no connection possible to tractor electrical system), a normally closed valve 30 is provided, e.g. between distribution valves 14 and LSV 15, along with a by-pass conduit 32 with a restriction valve 34, preferably a pressure limiting or pressure apportioning valve. Therefore, whenever there is no power supply to ABS, hydraulic flow is restricted via valve 34, reducing braking pressure; when there is power to the ABS the valve 30 opens.
