   Vacuum boosters provide brake assist for the driver by multiplying the force out of the booster creating more than the force that was used to push on the brake pedal. The booster works by pulling the air out of the booster chamber with a pump or other vacuum source (typically the engine's intake manifold [1]), creating a low-pressure system ...

   Vacuum brake cylinder in running position: the vacuum is the same above and below the piston Air at atmospheric pressure from the train pipe is admitted below the piston, which is forced up. In its simplest form, the automatic vacuum brake consists of a continuous pipe—the train pipe—running throughout the length of the train.
