Hydraulic braking system

摘要

A hydraulic braking system including hydraulically operated brakes and a hydraulic master cylinder for controlling the operation of the brakes. A conversion assembly is used for providing power-assisted braking in the system. The conversion assembly is capable of operating in a manual mode to couple master cylinder pressure to the hydraulic brakes or in a power-assisted mode to supply an amplified hydraulic braking pressure to the hydraulic brakes in response to the master cylinder pressure. The conversion assembly is also operable to provide deceleration control during braking to prevent skidding of the wheels being braked.
