Abstract
Abstract A hydraulic pressure control system for a split brake system including a tandem master cylinder, first and second wheel brakes, a first braking line between one of the tandem master cylinder and the first wheel brake, a second braking line between the other of the tandem master cylinders and the second wheel brake, an anti-skid actuator positioned within the first braking line to thereby decrease and increase brake fluid pressure transmitted to the first wheel brake in response to rotational conditions of the wheels, and a control valve assembly communicating with the first braking line between the anti-skid actuator and the first wheel brake at a first side thereof, and communicating with the second braking line at a second side thereof, the control valve assembly including a normally open valve member interrupting the second braking line when fluid pressure within the first braking line attains a predetermined value, and balance piston means being balanced by means of fluid pressure transmitted to the first and second wheel brakes, respectively, to thereby maintain the fluid pressures of the first and second wheel brakes at the same magnitude.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
189 words
A hydraulic pressure control system for a split brake system comprising: a tandem master cylinder; first and second wheel brakes; a first braking line between one of said tandem master cylinders and said first wheel brake; a second braking line between the other of said tandem master cylinders and said second wheel brake; an anti-skid actuator positioned within said first braking line to thereby decrease and increase braking fluid pressure transmitted to said first wheel brake in response to rotational conditions of wheels, and a control valve assembly positioned downstream of said anti-skid actuator communicating with said first braking line between said anti-skid actuator and said first wheel brake at a first side thereof, and communicating with said second braking line at a second side thereof, said control valve assembly comprising normally open valve means interrupting said second braking line when fluid pressure within said first braking line attains a predetermined value, and balance piston means being balanced by means of fluid pressures transmitted to said first and second wheel brakes, respectively, to thereby maintain said fluid pressures of said first and second wheel brakes at the same magnitude.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
189 words
A hydraulic pressure control system for a split brake system comprising: a tandem master cylinder; first and second wheel brakes; a first braking line between one of said tandem master cylinders and said first wheel brake; a second braking line between the other of said tandem master cylinders and said second wheel brake; an anti-skid actuator positioned within said first braking line to thereby decrease and increase braking fluid pressure transmitted to said first wheel brake in response to rotational conditions of wheels, and a control valve assembly positioned downstream of said anti-skid actuator communicating with said first braking line between said anti-skid actuator and said first wheel brake at a first side thereof, and communicating with said second braking line at a second side thereof, said control valve assembly comprising normally open valve means interrupting said second braking line when fluid pressure within said first braking line attains a predetermined value, and balance piston means being balanced by means of fluid pressures transmitted to said first and second wheel brakes, respectively, to thereby maintain said fluid pressures of said first and second wheel brakes at the same magnitude.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
65 words
A hydraulic pressure control system as set forth in claim 1, said normally open valve means further comprising a stepped piston having a large diameter portion subjected to the fluid pressure within said first braking line, a valve member urged to a closed position by means of slidable movement of said stepped piston, and means for normally maintaining said valve member in an open position.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
75 words
A hydraulic pressure control system as set forth in claim 1, said normally open valve means further comprising solenoid coil means energized when the fluid pressure within said first braking line attains said predetermined value, a core member movable in response to energization and deenergization of said solenoid coil, a valve member urged to a closed position by movement of said core member, and means for normally maintaining said valve member in an open position.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
44 words
A hydraulic pressure control system as set forth in claim 1 wherein said balance piston means includes a housing having a bore formed therein and a balance piston disposed in said bore so as to form a first and second chamber within said bore.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
44 words
A hydraulic pressure control system as set forth in claim 3 wherein said balance piston means includes a housing having a bore formed therein and a balance piston disposed in said bore so as to form a first and second chamber within said bore.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
47 words
A hydraulic pressure control system as set forth in claim 1 further comprising means for sensing a wheel locked condition and for signaling said locked condition and an air-vacuum change-over valve means communicating with said control valve assembly and operable in response to said wheel locked condition.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
47 words
A hydraulic pressure control system as set forth in claim 3 further comprising means for sensing a wheel locked condition and for signaling said locked condition and an air-vacuum change-over valve means communicating with said control valve assembly and operable in response to said wheel locked condition.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
97 words
A hydraulic pressure control system as set forth in claim 1 wherein said open valve means continuously interrupts said second braking line after fluid pressure within said first braking line attains a predetermined value, and said balance piston means is balanced by means of fluid pressures within said first braking line between said anti-skid actuator and said first wheel brake and fluid pressure within said second brake line between said normally open valve means and said second wheel brake, respectively, to thereby maintain said fluid pressure of said first and second wheel brakes at the same magnitude.
