HYDRAULICKA PROTISKLUZOVA BRZDOVA SOUSTAVA VOZIDEL

摘要

In a hydraulic anti-skid braking system of the pump and de-boost type the position of the de-boost piston (9) in the bore (8) is determined by a volume of fluid trapped in a space by a dump valve (4). The dump valve (4) operates in conjunction with a restrictor (40) which, at least at pressures above a pre-set level, restricts the rate of release of fluid from the space when the dump valve (4) is open. Decreasing the flow rate of the dump valve (4) decreases the time period for each anti-skid cycle. The pump (3) no longer has to pressurise to maximum (brake) from zero which reduces the amount of energy which otherwise would have been consumed in the re-application mode. In addition the rate of release of fluid at pressures below the pre-set level can be increased which is of particular advantage when the vehicle is travelling over surfaces having low coefficients of friction.
