ABSTRACT:
A braking system for the front wheels of a motor vehicle. A first reducing valve is interposed between the driver's master cylinder and the brake acting on the front wheel on one side and a second reducing valve is interposed between the master cylinder and the brake acting on the front wheel on the other side. The valves are arranged so that they do not restrict braking in a straight line but a resilient linkage connected to the vehicle suspension controls braking during cornering so that the pressure to the brake on the inboard wheel is reduced. The valves give improved braking to cornering characteristics compared with previously proposed systems.
