摘要:
An accumulator charging valve has a housing with an inlet and two outlet orifices respectively connected to the pump outlet, to a fluid accumulator and to an open center hydraulic circuit. A main passage is provided between the inlet orifice and the second outlet orifice, with a movable valve member mounted in the main passage, and operated by a differential piston having a face of smaller diameter exposed to the pressure prevailing at the inlet orifice and a face of larger diameter projecting into a control chamber, forming a resilient variable volume enclosure. A leakage passage is provided between the inlet orifice and a low pressure reservoir and has a first portion with an orifice of restricted cross-section situated between the inlet orifice and control chamber, and a second portion also with an orifice of restricted cross-section situated between the control chamber and the reservoir. The first portion comprises pilot means for permitting or interrupting the flow through the leakage passage as a function of the pressure level prevailing in the chamber of the accumulator.

A motor vehicle fluid power circuit is disclosed which includes a constant displacement pump driven by the engine of the vehicle, a control valve, an open center steering valve, a brake booster accumulator, and a closed center brake booster. The entire output of the pump flows through the control valve under all conditions, and the control valve selectively directs the pump output to the steering valve to assist in steering the vehicle or to the brake booster accumulator (which is hydraulically connected to the brake booster) to assist in braking.

A fluid pressure regulator valve assembly for the pressure accumulators used in the dual full pressure hydraulic brake system for vehicles is provided with two independent brake fluid conduits branching from a common supply passage and opened to both ends of a distributor cylinder. A pair of pressure chambers is provided in the distributor cylinder, mutually separated by a baffle wall, and communicate with a pair of accumulators. A piston rod slidably inserted through the baffle wall is kept at the neutral position by a balancing spring. A pair of one-way stop valves is provided at both open ends of passages of the pressure chambers, and each end of the piston rod is confronted with a valve element of each one-way stop valve. The piston rod is actuated against the repelling force of the balancing spring while the pressure of the braking fluid in any one of the accumulators is reduced to the desired level to a direction for moving the valve element at the reduced pressure side and clogging the open ends of the passages of the pressure chambers.

A hydraulic brake booster is shown in a vehicle with the hydraulic pressure supply being the pump serving the power steering gear. The booster and the power steering gear are arranged in series and the booster is of the open center valve type. The control valve for the booster has one element formed on a reaction piston reciprocably mounted in the power piston and movable toward the valve closing direction by actuating pressure in the power chamber. The other valve element is mounted on an input member so that brake actuating movement of the input member causes a metering restriction of the hydraulic fluid flow between the valve elements with a consequent buildup of actuating pressure in the power chamber. The input member valve element is movable axially on the input member against a spring after the input member has been moved sufficiently far to close the control valve. The movement of the input member valve element operates an accumulator control valve which controls the admission of accumulator pressure to the power chamber for actuation after booster runout. The accumulator is maintained in a pressure charged state by action of the actuating pressure on the accumulator control valve, that pressure opening the valve to bring the accumulator charge pressure substantailly up to the level of the actuating pressure. The input member includes a balance piston having suitable areas operatively exposed to hydraulic fluid pressure and atmospheric pressure to prevent pressure buildup, due to actuation of the power steering gear, from affecting the brake booster operation, and to prevent an excessive reaction force on the input member.

An unloader valve disposed within a hydraulic circuit connecting a hydraulic pressure source to an accumulator for an actuator. The unloader valve comprises a ball valve for controlling pressurized fluid supplied into the accumulator from the pressure source and a valve spool for regulating the open-and-close operation of the ball valve in response to the pressure accumulated within the accumulator.

摘要:
A trailer auxiliary hydraulic brake system completely independent of the conventional brake system and including a wheel-driven hydraulic pump, an accumulator, a main brake control valve, a back-up release valve and a fluid reservoir. An automatic actuation member, responsive to a longitudinally slidable connection between the tractor and trailer, controls the flow of pressurized hydraulic fluid to and from the trailer brakes. The trailer auxiliary system, in addition to automatically energizing the trailer brakes, also includes an assembly for manual actuation of the main brake control valve thus permitting emergency braking, pulsating braking and use of the system as a parking brake.
摘要:
In the dual hydraulic brake system the passages leading to the wheel brakes are closed during off service conditions and fluid communication is established between both hydraulic brake systems and a common reservoir. Valves are provided for interrupting fluid communication between the two systems upon application of the brakes and for applying fluid under pressure to the brakes. Upon a failure in one or both systems the manual braking pressures will still be supplied to the brakes for stopping the vehicle.

The vehicle hydraulic system comprises a pump, an accumulator adapted to energize a closed-centre power brake booster, and a open-centre power steering mechanism, the supply line of the power steering mechanism including a throttle in parallel relationship with a control valve. The valve member of the said control valve is actuated by a stepped piston responsive to the fluid pressures in the accumulator and in the supply line downstream said throttle, both pressures acting against a spring, thereby insuring a minimum level of pressure in the accumulator.
