Abstract
A hydraulic brake system employing two hydraulic brake assemblies. The first hydraulic brake assembly includes a first master hydraulic cylinder in communication with two reservoirs for respectively actuating a pair of brakes for braking front wheels and another of brakes for braking rear wheels of a car. The second hydraulic brake assembly includes a second master hydraulic cylinder in communication with a further reservoir for simultaneously actuating the four brakes for braking the front and rear wheels.
Claims3
A hydraulic brake system for a motor vehicles having a pair of front wheels and a pair of rear wheels, comprising:
- a pump comprising a first rod and a second rod extending in opposite directions therefrom, said first rod operatively linking to a pedal pivotally mounted in a vehicle, said second rod operatively linking to a bar;
- two guides connecting said pump with a plate, and sandwiching said second rod so that said first rod and said bar slide without rotating;
- a first master hydraulic cylinder linking to said plate and comprising a first mandrel penetrating said plate and linking to said bar, said first master hydraulic cylinder being in communication with a first reservoir and a second reservoir, said first reservoir driving a first pair of brakes for the front wheels via a first oil line, said second reservoir driving a second pair of brakes for the rear wheels via a second oil line;
- and
- a second master hydraulic cylinder linking to said plate and comprising a second mandrel penetrating said plate and linking to said bar, said second master hydraulic cylinder being in communication with a third reservoir said third reservoir driving the first and second pairs of brakes via a third oil line.
