<p>The inventive braking device, in particular for an industrial vehicle, comprises at least two brake circuits acting on at least two running gears, respectively, wherein each brake circuit comprises a power fluid circuit (6, 14) for supplying braking energy to the running gear and a control fluid circuit (12, 19) for setting a brake value applicable on the running gear. Said braking device also comprises a by-pass means for routing pressure fluid from the control circuit of the brake circuit to the power circuit of the other brake circuit when the power circuit thereof experiences a substantial pressure drop. The invention enables a vehicle provided with at least two brake circuits to prevent the failure of the power circuit of a vehicle brake circuit by using a pressure fluid of the control circuit of the other brake circuit.</p> |
