ABSTRACT:
A brake system wherein a manually operated foot pedal actuates a metering valve that controls the pressure magnitude of fluid applied to a set of main brake pistons which push stator brake plates against rotating brake plates resulting in wheel braking torque; and further wherein a force balanced piston and a control valve, modulates the fluid pressure applied to the set of main brake pistons in response to wheel braking torque reaction, such that maximum brake torque is limited in direct proportion to the magnitude of pressure metered.
