Patent ID: 8738260

Claim:
A brake control system comprising: a friction brake unit configured to generate a friction braking force; a regenerative brake unit configured to generate a regenerative braking force; and a control unit configured to control a braking force by selecting one of a plurality of control modes including both a regeneration permission mode in which a total braking force is generated by the regenerative braking force and the friction braking force with the regenerative brake unit and the friction brake unit being controlled based on a regenerative target value and a friction target value that are defined based on a target deceleration, and a regeneration prohibition mode in which the target deceleration is generated by the friction braking force, wherein the control unit generates the total braking force by providing a delay to at least the regenerative braking force in the regeneration permission mode, and provides a delay smaller than the delay to the friction braking force or does not provide a delay in the regeneration prohibition mode.
