SYSTEMS AND METHODS TO DETECT SHUT OFF VALVE FAILURE FOR IMPROVED UNCOMMANDED BRAKING

DRIVE July 3, 2024

Systems and methods for shut off valve failure detection are provided. The system may comprise a housing (202, 602), a shut off valve (203, 603)disposed within the housing (202, 602), a first servovalve and a second servovalve coupled to the housing (202, 602), and a pressure sensor (208, 608) disposed within the housing (202, 602) in fluid communication with the shut off valve. A controller may receive a pressure signal from the pressure sensor (208, 608) in the system, and a brake signal from a brake input device. The controller may determine whether there has been a shut off valve failure in the system in response to the pressure signal being greater than a pressure threshold and the controller failing to receive the brake signal, for a threshold period. The controller may then send a signal to a notification system in response to detection of the shut off valve failure and output a shut off valve failure notification.
