Abstract: A method in part enables a wheel slip control system that controls slip
on a per axle basis to control slip on a per truck basis. The wheel
slip control system issues on a per axle basis an axle reduction signal
indicative of a percentage by which to reduce the braking force that
would normally be applied to one wheel/axle combination on a truck of
a rail vehicle. The method includes the step of converting the axle
reduction signals issued on a per axle basis to a truck reduction
priority signal indicative of a percentage by which to reduce the
braking force on a per truck basis. For rail vehicles featuring
dynamic braking equipment another step involves commanding the dynamic
braking equipment to reduce the dynamic braking force being applied to
the wheel/axle combinations of the truck in response to the percentage
carried by the truck reduction priority signal. Still another step
involves commanding the friction braking equipment to apply an
appropriate amount of friction braking force to the wheel/axle
combinations of the truck so as to resolve the slip experienced
thereby. The appropriate amount of friction braking force represents
the sum of the total braking force sought to be applied to the
wheel/axle combinations of the truck less first a product of the total
braking force and the percentage carried by the truck reduction
priority signal and less second the dynamic braking force being applied
to the wheel/axle combinations of the truck.

important functions without requiring significant main 
processor processing time. A peripheral interface
macro may be executed to start a read or write
transaction with each peripheral device and thereafter
transfer the transaction results stored in the random
access memory to the game microprocessor. The
peripheral interface (138) performs security in

Abstract: In this invention, an idea is adopted in which the
pressure at a forward portion and a backward portion of valve
device is steppingly dropped twice. The valve device of the
present invention includes, on the axis of a spool 600, a first
valve 710 located nearer an inlet port and a second valve 720
located nearer an outlet port. A throttling area made by the
second valve 720 is larger than a throttling area made by the
first valve 710. For example, of all the pressure difference
equal to 120 kg / cm 2  or more required at the forward and backward
portions of the valve device, a portion in the range where the
problem of an occurrence of a foreign noise is not encountered
(for example, a portion ranging from 100 to 120 kg /cm 2 ) is
undertaken by the first valve 710, and the remaining portion
ranging from 20 to 30 kg / cm 2  is undertaken by the second valve
720. By doing so, there can be eliminated such a pressure
difference where a generation of a noise before and after an
actual throttling (including a primary throttling made by the
first valve 710 and a secondary throttling made by the second
valve 720) can become a problem.
