Rolling Prevention In Vehicles

Abstract: ABSTRACT ROLLING PREVENTION IN VEHICLES A vehicle (100) includes a drive wheel (208), a power source (104), a Power Source Control Unit (PSCU) (106), at least one brake (206), and a vehicle Control unit (VCU) (108). The VCU (108) is configured to determine whether the vehicle (100) is moving; determine whether 5 the vehicle (100) is travelling on a path having a gradient; determine whether the gradient of the path is beyond than a gradient threshold; determine whether the at least one brake (206) is applied; determine, whether a braking force at which the at least one brake (206) applied is greater than a threshold force; determine, whether time of application of the at least one brake (206) is greater than a threshold time; and send a command signal to the PSCU (106) to lock 10 the drive wheel (208) to arrest movement of the drive wheel (208) to prevent rolling of the vehicle (100).
