  2. Hydraulic brake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_brake

    Unlike air brakes, where a valve is opened and air flows into the lines and brake chambers until the pressure rises sufficiently, hydraulic systems rely on a single stroke of a piston to force fluid through the system. If any vapor is introduced into the system it will compress, and the pressure may not rise sufficiently to actuate the brakes.

  3. Proportioning valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proportioning_valve

    A cross-section of a proportioning safety valve. A proportioning valve is a valve that relies on the laws of fluid pressure to distribute input forces to one or more output lines. Proportioning valves are frequently used in cars and other road vehicles to reduce the brake fluid pressure to the rear brakes. Due to weight distribution during ...

  4. Line lock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_lock

    In order to park by using the primary hydraulic brakes, a hand-operated valve is added to lock hydraulic pressure in the brake line. [5] For parking using the brakes on all four wheels, two valves may be necessary. Any leakage at the brake cylinders will reduce pressure in the line and release the brakes.

  5. Brake fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_fluid

    Brake fluid is a type of hydraulic fluid used in hydraulic brake and hydraulic clutch applications in automobiles, motorcycles, light trucks, and some bicycles. It is used to transfer force into pressure, and to amplify braking force.

  6. Anti-lock braking system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-lock_braking_system

    When a valve is clogged it is unable to open, close, or change position. An inoperable valve will prevent the system from modulating the valves and controlling pressure supplied to the brakes. Electronic control module Pump The pump in the ABS is used to restore the pressure to the hydraulic brakes after the valves have released it.

  7. Master cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_cylinder

    The most common vehicle uses of master cylinders are in brake and clutch systems.. In brake systems, the operated devices are cylinders inside brake calipers and/or drum brakes; these cylinders may be called wheel cylinders or slave cylinders, and they push the brake pads towards a surface that rotates with the wheel (this surface is typically either a drum or a disc, a.k.a. a rotor) until the ...

  8. Brake fluid pressure sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_fluid_pressure_sensor

    The fault could be lack of hydraulic fluid, low brake fluid in the reservoir, a broken hydraulic line or a bad master brake cylinder. The sensor is used to detect pressure differentials in the hydraulic system. If the car alerts a fault in the hydraulic system and the system checks out, the sensor itself may have failed. [2]

  9. Shuttle valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shuttle_valve

    Winch brake circuit: a shuttle valve provides brake control in pneumatic winch applications. When the compressor is operated the shuttle valves direct air to open the brake shoes. When the control valve is centered, the brake cylinder is vented through the shuttle valve, and the brake shoes are allowed to close. [clarification needed]
