- the control device defines the timing of control based on the vehicle speed during deceleration.
- the wheel rotation angle based on the detection signal from the wheel speed sensor may be used to calculate the vehicle speed.
- a detection signal from the wheel speed sensor includes pulses generated at intervals corresponding to the rotational speed of the wheel.
- the interval between pulses included in the detection signal becomes large in a region where the vehicle speed is low, such as immediately before the wheels stop rotating.
- the wheel speed is calculated as a value obtained by first-order differentiating the rotation angle. Therefore, the larger the pulse interval, the larger the difference between the calculated wheel speed and the actual wheel speed.

- the wheel reference distance calculated as described above can reduce the low precision with respect to the actual value. Therefore, even if the accuracy of detecting the vehicle speed is low, the influence on the accuracy of controlling the braking force can be reduced.

- FIG. 5 shows changes in the target braking force BFT when the vehicle 90 is stopped by braking.
- the pedal stroke BP increases from timing t11 as shown in FIG. 5(a).
- the pedal stroke BP is kept constant. Since the braking force is applied as the pedal stroke BP increases, the longitudinal acceleration AS takes a negative value during the period from timing t11 to timing t16 as shown in FIG. 5(b). Further, as the braking force is applied, the vehicle body speed VS decreases over time as shown in FIG. 5(c).
- the vehicle body speed VS is smaller than the determination speed VSth after timing t13. That is, in the example shown in FIG. 5, the period before timing t13 is a period in which deviation between the vehicle body speed VS and the actual speed of the vehicle 90 is unlikely to occur.
- F/B control is executed because the vehicle body speed VS is lower than the judgment speed VSth (S106). Furthermore, in the example shown in FIG. 5, the execution condition for the pre-stop brake control is established after timing t13. That is, after timing t13, pre-stop brake control is also executed.
- the example shown in FIG. 5 shows an example in which the vehicle 90 stops at timing t16. That is, the position of the vehicle 90 at timing t13 corresponds to the starting position. The position of vehicle 90 at timing t16 corresponds to the stop position.

- the target braking force BFT indicated by the dashed line is adjusted like the braking profile illustrated in FIG. 2 by executing the pre-stop brake control.
- a period from timing t13 to timing t14 is a period during which the target braking force BFT is increased from the reference braking force and a period during which the increased target braking force BFT is maintained.
- a period from timing t14 to timing t15 is a period in which the target braking force BFT is gradually decreased.
- a period from timing t15 to timing t16 is a period in which the target braking force BFT is kept constant. After timing t16, it is a period during which the target braking force BFT is increased to the reference braking force.

AS can be brought closer to "0". Therefore, the amount of change in the longitudinal acceleration AS when the vehicle 90 stops can be kept small. As a result, it is possible to suppress the longitudinal acceleration fluctuation and the change speed of the pitch angle in the vehicle 90 .
- FIG. 5 shows the distance traveled by the vehicle 90 from the start position to the stop position.
- a dashed line indicates the ideal distance transition Di.
- a two-dot chain line indicates the lower limit value Dab and the upper limit value Daa. That is, the inside of the two double-dashed lines indicates the allowable range.
- the wheel reference distance D is indicated by a solid line.
- the ideal distance transition Di and the allowable range are calculated (S104).
- the ideal distance transition Di is "0" at timing t13.
- the ideal distance transition Di increases after timing t13 and reaches the stopping distance Ds at timing t16.
- the ideal distance transition Di transitions in a curved line reflecting the braking profile adjusted by the pre-stop brake control.
- the wheel reference distance D is calculated (S105). At the timing t13, the wheel reference distance D is "0".
- the controller 10 when the wheel reference distance D diverges from the ideal distance transition Di as shown in (d) and (e) of FIG. is incremented or decremented relative to the value of the damping profile indicated by the dashed line. As a result, the braking force applied to the vehicle 90 is increased or decreased.
- the longitudinal acceleration of the vehicle 90 may be affected depending on the inclination angle of the road surface. Due to such disturbances, the wheel reference distance D may deviate from the ideal distance transition Di. If the vehicle 90 continues to travel while the wheel reference distance D deviates from the ideal distance transition Di, the moving distance until the vehicle 90 stops may become shorter or longer than the stopping distance Ds.
- the target braking force BFT can be adjusted by the F/B control so as to reduce the difference between the wheel reference distance D and the ideal distance transition Di.
- the moving distance until the vehicle 90 stops can be matched with the stopping distance Ds. That is, the vehicle 90 can be stopped at the position calculated as the stop position.
- the dashed line shown in FIG. 5(b) shows the transition of the longitudinal acceleration AS when it is assumed that the braking force is applied according to the braking profile of the pre-stop brake control.
- the actual value of the longitudinal acceleration AS indicated by the solid line changes differently from the value indicated by the dashed line. This is because the braking force applied to the vehicle 90 is increased or decreased by the F/B control in addition to the pre-stop brake control.

- the value of the actual vehicle body speed VS indicated by the solid line changes differently from the value indicated by the dashed line. This is because the braking force applied to the vehicle 90 is increased or decreased by the F/B control in addition to the pre-stop brake control.
- the wheel reference distance D deviates from the ideal distance transition Di
- the wheel reference distance D does not exceed the allowable range.
- the travel distance of the vehicle 90 can be estimated based on the detection signal from the wheel speed sensor 81, and the braking force applied to the vehicle 90 can be controlled. That is, the braking force can be controlled without using the speed of the vehicle 90 calculated based on the detection signal from the wheel speed sensor 81 .
- the controller 10 calculates the wheel reference distance D by integrating the movement distance each time a pulse is generated, using the movement distance per pulse.
- the wheel reference distance D calculated in this way is compared with the speed, which is a value obtained by first-order differentiation of the rotation angle, and the acceleration, which is a value obtained by second-order differentiation of the rotation angle, the accuracy of the actual value can be reduced. Therefore, even if the accuracy of detecting the vehicle speed is low, the influence on the accuracy of controlling the braking force can be reduced.
- the control device 10 performs F/B control when the vehicle body speed VS is lower than the judgment speed VSth. By performing F/B control using the wheel reference distance D and the braking force reference distance in a region where the accuracy of calculating the vehicle body speed VS is low, the low accuracy of calculating the vehicle body speed VS can be compensated. .
- the distance traveled by the vehicle 90 to the stop position may be detected by a device such as a camera or radar.
- the control device 10 calculates the wheel reference distance D using the pulse obtained by the wheel speed sensor 81 as the wheel 91 rotates and the diameter of the wheel 91 . Therefore, according to the control device 10, even if the vehicle 90 is not equipped with a device such as a camera or radar, the distance traveled by the vehicle 90 to the stop position can be calculated. Further, even if the vehicle is equipped with a camera, it may not be possible to detect the distance traveled by the vehicle to the stop position if the camera is covered with snow or the like.
- the distance that the vehicle 90 moves to the stop position can be calculated even in a situation where a device such as a camera or radar cannot be used. can be done.
- the pedal stroke BP increases from timing t21. After timing t22, the pedal stroke BP is kept constant. As shown in FIG. 6B, the longitudinal acceleration AS takes a negative value during the period from timing t21 to timing t26. Further, as the braking force is applied, the vehicle body speed VS decreases over time as shown in FIG. 6(c). The vehicle body speed VS is smaller than the determination speed VSth after timing t23.
- the vehicle body speed VS is smaller than the judgment speed VSth, so feedback control is executed (S106). Furthermore, in the example shown in FIG. 6, pre-stop brake control is also executed after timing t23.
- the example shown in FIG. 6 shows an example in which the vehicle 90 stops at timing t26.
- the ideal distance transition Di and the allowable range are calculated (S104).
- the wheel reference distance D is calculated (S105).
- the ideal distance transition Di increases after timing t23 and reaches the stopping distance Ds at timing t25. That is, the braking profile is set such that the vehicle 90 reaches the stop position at the timing t25.
- the wheel reference distance D exceeds the upper limit value Daa in the allowable range. Therefore, it is determined that an abnormality has occurred at timing t24 (S107: NO), and degeneration control is being performed (S109). That is, after timing t24, the pre-stop brake control and the F/B control are terminated.
- the timing t24 is a period during which the target braking force BFT is decreased below the reference braking force as indicated by the dashed line in (e) of FIG. By executing the degeneracy control during this period, as indicated by the solid line, the reduction of the target braking force BFT is interrupted so that the target braking force BFT matches the reference braking force.
- an abnormality can be detected when the wheel reference distance D exceeds the allowable range.
- the wheel reference distance D exceeds the upper limit value Daa as in the example shown in FIG. indicates That is, there is a possibility that the braking force is insufficient.
- the target braking force BFT can be matched with the reference braking force by executing the degeneration control.
- the braking force required by the driver can be secured, and the shortage of braking force can be resolved.
- the vehicle 90 stops at a timing t26 that exceeds the timing t25 at which the vehicle 90 stops in the ideal distance transition Di. At this time, as indicated by the solid line in (d) of FIG. 6, the moving distance until the vehicle 90 stops is longer than the stopping distance Ds.
- the dashed line shown in FIG. 6(b) shows the transition of the longitudinal acceleration AS when it is assumed that the braking force is applied according to the braking profile of the pre-stop brake control.
- the actual value of the longitudinal acceleration AS indicated by the solid line is significantly different from the value indicated by the broken line after timing t24 when the degeneration control is performed. Since the pre-stop brake control has ended, the longitudinal acceleration AS immediately before the vehicle 90 stops does not approach "0.”
- the dashed line shown in FIG. 6(c) shows the transition of the vehicle body speed VS when it is assumed that the braking force is applied according to the braking profile of the pre-stop brake control. showing.
- the value of the actual vehicle body speed VS indicated by the solid line changes differently from the value indicated by the dashed line.
- the control device 10 can also detect an abnormality in which the wheel reference distance D exceeds the lower limit value Dab in the allowable range.

- a situation in which the braking force becomes excessive may occur during a period in which the target braking force BFT is increased more than the reference braking force, such as the period from timing t1 to timing t3 in FIG.
- the control device 10 can perform the degeneracy control even when such an abnormality occurs. Excessive applied braking force can be reduced by matching the target braking force BFT with the reference braking force by executing the degeneration control.
- the control device 10 can perform learning processing when the wheel reference distance D exceeds the allowable range (S110). As a result, it is possible to store the history of the wheel reference distance D exceeding the allowable range (S204). Also, when similar excesses occur repeatedly, a learning correction value can be calculated (S203).
- the pedal stroke BP increases from timing t31 as shown in FIG. 7(a).
- the pedal stroke BP is kept constant. Since the braking force is applied as the pedal stroke BP increases, the longitudinal acceleration AS takes a negative value during the period from timing t31 to timing t34 as shown in FIG. 7(b). Further, as the braking force is applied, the vehicle body speed VS decreases over time as shown in FIG. 7(c). The vehicle body speed VS is smaller than the determination speed VSth after timing t33.
- the target braking force BFT is indicated by a solid line. Further, after timing t33, the target braking force BFT when adjustment by F/B control is not performed is indicated by a dashed line. In the example shown in FIG. 7, the pre-stop brake control is not executed, so the value of the reference braking force is used for the target braking force BFT indicated by the dashed line.
- FIG. 7 shows an example in which the vehicle 90 stops at timing t34. That is, the position of the vehicle 90 at timing t33 corresponds to the start position. The position of the vehicle 90 at timing t34 corresponds to the stop position.
- the ideal distance transition Di is indicated by a dashed line.
- the lower limit value Dab and the upper limit value Daa are indicated by two-dot chain lines. That is, the inside of the two double-dashed lines indicates the allowable range.
- the wheel reference distance D is indicated by a solid line.
- the ideal distance transition Di is "0" at timing t33 when the F/B control is started.
- the ideal distance transition Di increases after timing t33 and reaches the stopping distance Ds at timing t34.
- the ideal distance transition Di transitions as a straight line with a constant slope because the pedal stroke BP is constant. Further, the wheel reference distance D is "0" at timing t33 when the F/B control is started.
- the target braking force BFT indicated by the solid line is incremented or decremented relative to the value of the damping profile indicated by the dashed line. As a result, the braking force applied to the vehicle 90 is increased or decreased.
- the wheel reference distance D is a larger value than the ideal distance transition Di. This is a situation in which the longitudinal acceleration of vehicle 90 increases toward the positive value side due to, for example, the road surface on which vehicle 90 is running is downhill.
- F/B control is not performed, the vehicle 90 may exceed the stop position.
- the target braking force BFT can be adjusted by the F/B control so as to reduce the difference between the wheel reference distance D and the ideal distance transition Di.
