BRIEF SUMMARY
PRIOR ART

DE-A1 40 30 724 discloses a control system in which target slip values for the wheels of a vehicle are determined. The target slip values can consist of slip components which are determined by an ABS and by a vehicle dynamics control. Target braking torques and thus target braking pressures for the wheels are then determined from the target slip values and the actual slip values. The said target braking torques and target braking pressures can then be converted into valve actuation times.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

In the invention, the target braking torques calculated by the ABS and the travel dynamic controller are distributed at the wheels between a target engine torque, which is common to the drive wheels, and individual residual torques. Therefore, the overrun torque is controlled. If braking does not take place (admission pressure P.sub.adm =0) "select low" control takes place automatically. When there is a large admission pressure P.sub.adm >a, the engine torque disappears, which in turn has favourable effects on the slip control. The result in the invention is that the engine assumes the low frequency, slow control of the wheels while the fast control takes place via the brake.
The output variable of the subordinate brake slip controller in the vehicle dynamics controller is the target braking torque applied to the respective wheel. In the case of the nondriven wheels this torque can only be set independently for each wheel via the brake callipers.
In the case of the driven wheels, the engine overrun torque can, within certain limits, be additionally used as a control variable in the coupled-in state. In this case, the overrun torque cannot be distributed individually to the driven wheels.
This means that a wheel slip control only with the engine within the vehicle dynamics controller is a "select low" control.
If the driver additionally applies the brake hard or an active braking intervention takes place, the wheel slip is controlled via a common component with the engine torque, and the rest is controlled individually with the braking torque.
The distribution of the target torque between engine and brake and its calculation is the subject matter of this invention.


BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING

FIG. 2 is a block circuit diagram of an exemplary embodiment of the invention.


DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

The invention is based on the following considerations:
The equations for the distribution of the target braking torque are derived for a vehicle driven at one axle. In principle, the method can also be used for vehicles with all-wheel drive.
FIG. 1 shows the model of the drive train which is used for the calculation of the target engine torque.
The following equilibrium of torques results from a nonslipping clutch: torque M.sub.awheel at the wheel:
The wheel slip controller has calculated the target torques M.sub.set1 and M.sub.set2 for the driven axle on the basis of target slip deviations.
A target torque to be realized by the engine is calculated from the smaller of the two torques.
Thus, the engine torque obtained is:
The remaining residual torques are realized via the target pressures P.sub.set1 and P.sub.set2 in the wheel brake cylinders.
In FIG. 2 a block circuit diagram of an exemplary embodiment of the invention is shown. At terminals 2, target brake slip values .lambda..sub.s1 and .lambda..sub.s2 and actual brake slip values .lambda..sub.i1 and .lambda..sub.i2 of the two driven wheels (1 and 2) which are determined in a known travel dynamic controller and an ABS are fed to a controller 3. The latter determines the target braking torques M.sub.set1 and M.sub.set2 of the two wheels. In a block 4, the smaller torque is selected. In a further block 5, the expression 2k/i)M.sub.setmin is formed, to which the summand i-bx/r acquired in block 7 is added in block 6. The sum influences the engine torque (block 8) and must be realized by the engine by mea
