ABSTRACT:
A brake system for a towing vehicle and trailer is disclosed. An electromechanical transducer controller connected to the towing vehicle brake system develops an electrical signal which varies continuously and systematically in accordance with braking action pressure in the towing vehicle brake system. In a fluid trailer brake system, an electromechanical control receives this signal, and continuously and systematically varies the fluid pressure in the trailer brake system accordingly. A vacuum or other fluid power booster can be included to assist in amplifying and applying this fluid brake pressure. Trailer braking action in caliper-type trailer disc brakes varies in accordance with this fluid pressure.
