ABSTRACT:
A pressurized fluid brake system for automotive vehicles of the type where the brake pedal pressure (F) is transmitted with assistance of an auxiliary pressure force to the wheel brake cylinders through pressure lines containing pressure modulator valves. The wheels are provided with transducers for measuring instantaneous wheel rotation as well as vehicle velocity. Electronic control circuitry processes and logically combines the measured values to generate control signals for the pressure modulator valves. Preferably, the modulator valves are electromagnetically actuatable valves. By virtue of the braking pressure modulator valves, brake force distribution is controlled in dependence upon the brake slip of the front wheels and, in addition, a brake slip preventing locking of the vehicle wheels will be performed.
