Abstract
An anti-locking brake system is provided, wherein, during a control operation, the brake conduit is blocked by a separating valve. The wheel brakes, through a return conduit, are in communication with the intake side of a pump. Provided in the return conduit is an outlet valve. The pressure side of the pump, through a pressure conduit, is in communication with the brake conduit between the separating valve and the wheel brake. A restriction element is provided in the pressure conduit. Check valves between the master brake cylinder and the pressure side of the pump enable pressure fluid, if an enhanced amount of pressure fluid is required by the control circuit, to be fed from the master brake cylinder into the control circuit.
Claims8
An anti-locking hydraulic brake system comprising:
- a master brake cylinder connected to a wheel brake through a brake conduit;
- a separating valve for blocking said brake conduit;
- a return conduit connecting said wheel brake to an intake side of a pump;
- an outlet valve within said return conduit;
- a pressure conduit connecting a pressure side of said pump to said brake conduit between said separating valve and said wheel brake;
- a restriction element in series with a check valve within said pressure conduit, and wherein no intervening elements are disposed between said restriction element and said check valve, said check valve opening toward said brake circuit and said restriction element including means for providing continuous restricted flow regardless of pressure;
- and
- a differential pressure switch connected in parallel to said separating valve, both of which share a common input and a common output.
