ABSTRACT:
A device for controlling the application of braking action to a vehicle having at least two wheels, one wheel being a forward wheel, the other wheel being a rearward wheel, each wheel having associated therewith, means for braking and unbraking the rotation thereof in response to displacement inputs directed thereto and forward and rearward associated operator control means. The device comprises movable control means positioned intermediate the forward and rearward braking means and the associated operator control means, means operatively communicating the movable control means with the rearward braking means, means operatively communicating the rearward operator control means with the movable control means and with the associated rearward braking means, means operatively communicating the movable control means with the forward braking means, and means operatively communicating the forward operator control means with the movable control means. The operative communication between the forward and rearward operator control means to the movable control means and the operative communication between the movable control means to the respective forward and rearward vehicle wheels being such that actuation of the associated rearward operator control means produces at least a corresponding displacement and braking action of the rearward wheel. Actuation of the associated forward operator control means produces at least an initial displacement of the rearward brake means which at least initially exceeds the displacement and braking action applied to the forward wheel to thereby assure at least initial rearward braking action on the vehicle when operational control movements are applied to either the rearward of forward operator controls.
