Hydraulic assistance device comprising a housing (10) provided with a bore (12) in which a piston mechanism (30, 42) is slidably mounted, which mechanism is displaceable by a brake pedal between a first position linking a first chamber (38, 56), connected to a brake circuit (60), with a low-pressure reservoir and isolating this chamber (38, 56) from a high-pressure fluid source (66), and a second position isolating the chamber (38, 56) from the low-pressure reservoir and linking it with the high-pressure source (66), the piston mechanism (30, 42) being displaceable by the brake pedal in the event of failure of the high-pressure circuit (66) thereby producing pressure increase in a second chamber (69) connected to the brake circuit (60), characterized in that the working area of the piston mechanism (30, 42) is equal to the cross-section of the bore (12). |
