ABSTRACT:
The present invention mainly relates to an improved-safety braking device, intended for reducing the injury risks concerning the driver, owing to the brake pedal if a collision happens, in particular a front impact and, more particularly, the invention deals with an electrohydraulic braking device having a variable hydraulic reaction.A braking device according to the present invention comprises a master cylinder (1) fitted with a pedal-feeling simulation cartridge (3), said master cylinder (1) being actuated by an actuating rod (11) connected to a brake pedal (12), said cartridge (3) comprising a resilient means (29) and compression means (38) for the resilient means (29). These compression means (38) can be actuated by a computer (81) on the detection of an injury risk concerning the driver's legs, so as to reduce the compression rate of the resilient means (29).
