Dual-circuit pressure control valves

摘要

In a known dual-circuit braking pressure control valve, a tilting lever arrangement is provided for distribution of the preloading force to the two control pistons, whereby the change-over point of the intact brake circuit is increased upon failure of one brake circuit. The tilting lever arrangement is complicated with respect to its construction and assembly, and its mode of operation is not safe. According to the present invention the tilting lever arrangement is replaced by a carrier bridge at the ends of the two pistons which synchronizes the points of application of the preloading forces by allowing a slight relative movement betweeen the two pistons when both of the brake circuits are operative.
