ABSTRACT:
Two different types of converter boxes (38, 84) provide the required interface for transmitting service brake control signals from the tractor unit (12) of a tractor-trailer combination vehicle to the trailer unit (16) thereof in which the tractor unit (17) and trailer unit (16) are provided with dissimilar braking systems. One type of converter box (38) provides the interface between a tractor (12) equipped with an electropneumatic braking system in which service brake applications are controlled by electrical signals and a conventional trailer (16) in which service brakes are controlled by pneumatic signals. The other type of converter box (84) provides the required interface between a tractor (12) which has service brakes controlled by conventional pneumatic signals and a trailer unit (16) which is provided with and electropneumatic braking system in which service brake applications are controlled by electrical signals.
