ABSTRACT:
A vehicle brake system includes: a brake master cylinder having a cylinder body and a master cylinder piston slidably received in the cylinder body, a plurality of wheel cylinders connected to the cylinder body of the master cylinder, an oil reservoir filled with brake hydraulic oil formed on a rear portion of the cylinder body and a pressure-reducing cylinder mounted on the brake master cylinder. Whenever braking a car provided with such a brake system, a brake pedal may be trodden to actuate the master cylinder piston to compress the brake hydraulic oil to brake the car wheels. However, an oil flow will be by-passed from an outlet pipe of the master cylinder to move a depressing piston restored in the pressure-reducing cylinder to by-pass an oil flow to return into the oil reservoir of the master cylinder for reducing the hydraulic oil pressure in the brake system for preventing a sudden locking a sudden locking of the car wheels in order for a safer emergency brake operation.
