Disclosed is an improved vehicle braking activation system (10), which provides faster response time by using a hand operated steering wheel mounted braking control system. A centralized end ball (90) underneath a pressure plate (12) within the steering wheel (52), depresses an underlying deformable sensing beam (46) when force is applied by the driver on the pressure plate (12). The signal output of a strain gauge sensor (98) on the sensing beam (46), could then provide the input for a braking controller to electronically control braking proportionally.

L'invention concerne un système amélioré de commande de freinage d'un véhicule qui présente un temps de réponse plus court grâce à un système de commande de freinage manuel monté sur le volant de direction. Une boule (90) terminale centrale placée sous un plateau (12) de pression installé dans le volant (52), enfonce un barreau (46) de détection déformable sous-jacent lorsqu'une force est appliquée sur le plateau (12) de pression par le conducteur. Le signal de sortie d'un capteur (98) à jauge de contrainte placé sur le faisceau (46) de détection peut alors servir d'entrée à une unité de commande de manière à produire un freinage proportionnel commandé électroniquement.
