Braking system for a trailer vehicle

摘要

An electro-pneumatic system including relay valves disposed between a pressure supply inlet and outputs respectively, and having respective control inputs; associated solenoid-operated valves each operable in a first or a second condition respectively to allow or prevent connection of the control input of the relay valves respectively to a pneumatic duct; a solenoid-operated commutation valve having respective first and second conditions in which it connects the pneumatic duct to the control input of the system to receive a braking control pressure or to an inlet/outlet aperture of a second solenoid-operated switching valve; and an electronic control unit (ECU) arranged to control the solenoid valves. The second switching valve has respective first and second conditions in which its inlet/outlet aperture is connected to a discharge passage opening to the outside environment or to the supply inlet.
