Don't forget to top off new brake fluid in the reservoir periodically - usually after about 5-8 pumps of the pedal. If you let the fluid get too low you risk air entering the brake lines, which undermines everything you're doing and can be a major safety hazard. If you're using a...
The invention relates to brakes, and more particularly to an improved internal expanding selfenergizing brake where the brake torque produced is in a pre-determined proportion to the pedal pressure ex
connected to a wear signaling device is mounted on a rod proximate to the brake shaft at a predetermined distance from the magnet, so as to close the switch by magnetic flux when the shaft of the air chamber moves outward too far after the operator touches the brake pedal of the vehicle....

As long as the bus travels so that the throttle pedal 12 is pressed by the driver, the hydrodynamic retarder brake 3 does not function at all. In this case the transmitter 16 for the signal of angular velocity signals continuously the velocity of the bus. However, the signal remains unproce...
The pressurized fluid travels through the fluid conduit in both circuits to actuate brake cylinders at the wheels to slow the vehicle.Base brake systems typically use a brake booster which provides a force to the master cylinder which assists the pedal force created by the driver. The booster ...
(driving performance) and/or velocity of the vehicle may be taken into account, since even without activation of the vehicle brake system the wear of a brake surface increases, the further the vehicle travels and/or the higher the velocity of the vehicle is. In the present case, a wear ...
