Operation of both a gear box and a parking brake may be accomplished by means of one and the same selector means. The selector means may be arranged in a position in the vicinity of the steering wheel of a vehicle.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Known control devices for the parking brake and trailer brake, which are provided with a lever arm or a knob arranged on the dashboard, may influence on the available space on the dashboard, especially if information screens or large displays should be arranged at the dashboard. Known control devices for the parking brake and trailer brake may not fulfil the needs for the use in a modern heavy vehicle where the parking brake control device and the trailer brake control device both have to be easily accessible and easy to operate.
There is a need to further develop a control device for the parking brake and trailer brake that may not influence on the available space of the dashboard of a vehicle.
There is also a need to develop a control device for the parking brake and trailer brake where the parking brake control device and the trailer brake control device both may be easily accessible and easy to operate.
The object of the invention is therefore to further develop a control device for the parking brake and trailer brake that may not influence on the available space of the dashboard of a vehicle.
Another object of the invention is to develop a control device for the parking brake and trailer brake, where the parking brake control device and the trailer brake control device both may be easily accessible and easy to operate.
The herein mentioned objects may be achieved by the above-mentioned control device for a vehicle, and a vehicle comprising such a control device according to the independent claims.
According to the invention the control device for a vehicle may comprise a selector means, which is arranged in a position in the vicinity of a steering wheel of the vehicle; the control device is provided with a parking brake position, at which a parking brake is activated. The control device may also be provided with a trailer brake position, at which a trailer brake is activated.
Such control device for the parking brake and trailer brake may not influence on the available space of the dashboard since the selector means, provided with both the parking brake position and the trailer brake position, may be arranged in a position in the vicinity of the steering wheel of a vehicle. When the selector means may be arranged in a position in the vicinity of the steering wheel, information screens and large displays may have enough space to be arranged at the dashboard. Such control device may fulfil the needs for the use in a modern heavy vehicle, since the selector means, provided with both the parking brake position and the trailer brake position, may be arranged in a position in the vicinity of the steering wheel of a vehicle and thus may be easily accessible and easy to operate. At the parking brake position the parking brake may be activated for brakes at all wheels on the vehicle, both on the truck and on the trailer. In the trailer brake position only the brakes at all wheels on the trailer may be activated.
According to a further aspect of the invention the trailer brake position may be arranged within a first operating region, in which the trailer brakes are gradually applied.
The first operating region for gradually applying the trailer brake may be used to brake the trailer and thus also the entire vehicle in situations where there may be a risk for instability in and/or jack-knifing of the vehicle. Such a situation may happen on a slippery road and/or on downward slopes.
According to a further aspect of the invention the first operating region may be arranged to control the braking force of the trailer brake from zero at a first point of the first operating region to full braking force at a second point of the first operating region.
When the braking force of the trailer brake may be controlled from zero at a first point of the first operating region to full braking force at a second point of the first operating region the driver of the vehicle may adapt the braking force of the vehicle depending on the speed of the vehicle and the road conditions.
According to a further aspect of the invention the parking brake position may be arranged within a second operating region in which the wheel brakes of all wheels of the vehicle are applied, which second operating region may comprise a first point at which the parking brake is deactivated and a second point corresponding to the parking brake position.
Arranging such a second operating region for the parking brake in combination with the trailer brake position at the same control device may fulfil the needs for the use in a modern heavy vehicle, since the selector means, provided with both the parking brake position, having the second operating region, and the trailer brake position, may be arranged in a position in the vicinity of the steering wheel of a vehicle and thus may be easily accessible and easy to operate.
According to a further aspect of the invention the control device may comprise a first control element to be actuated so as to allow a movement of the selector means from the first point.
The first control element may avoid unintentional activation of the trailer brake or the parking brake by the driver in situations where the trailer brake or the parking brake should not be activated.
