Abstract
An actuator device of a braking device and a clutch may have a pump provided with a single operating device for pressurizing a fluid by a float, and a first delivery circuit and a second delivery circuit fluidly connected to an outlet of the pump. The first delivery circuit may be fluidly connectable to a braking device, the second delivery circuit may be fluidly connectable to a clutch. The actuator device may have a diverter device suitable for fluidly connecting the output of the pump alternately with the first delivery circuit and with the second delivery circuit, so as to alternately actuate the braking device or the clutch.
Claims19
