ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for adjusting the braking force of brakes applied to vehicle wheels in which the brakes are operated under the control of an electromagnet as a function of the deceleration and acceleration of the wheels. For a given braking signal, the braking force is eliminated when the deceleration of the braked wheel exceeds a predetermined threshold value, which may occur, for example, when the wheel starts to freely skid, and the reapplication of the braking force is delayed for a period of time proportional to the magnitude of deceleration of the wheel and inversely proportional to the subsequent magnitude of acceleration of the wheel when it picks up speed only when such acceleration exceeds a threshold which permits the wheel to gain speed irrespective of the frictional adherence of the wheel to the ground.
