A brake system includes a source of pressurized hydraulic fluid, a plurality of wheel brakes, and an iso/dump control valve arrangement associated with at least one wheel brake. A reservoir is connected to the source of pressurized fluid and to the iso/dump control valve arrangement. A fast-replenishing circuit includes a FR iso valve, a venting valve, and a replenishing check valve. The venting and replenishing check valves are interposed between the source of pressurized fluid and the reservoir. The FR iso valve is interposed between the source of pressurized fluid and the iso/dump control valve arrangement. When the source of pressurized fluid reaches a predetermined stroke position, the FR iso valve is energized to restrict movement of fluid from at least one iso/dump control valve arrangement to the source of pressurized fluid. The source of pressurized fluid is re-stroked to draw fluid from the reservoir through the replenishing check valve.

An electronic hydraulic brake device includes a main braking unit configured to provide a braking fluid to a plurality of wheel cylinder units by driving of a motor; a storage unit connected to the main braking unit and configured to store the braking fluid; and an auxiliary braking unit connected to the main braking unit and the storage unit and configured to provide the braking fluid to some of the plurality of wheel cylinder units when an operation error of the main braking unit occurs, so that braking of a vehicle may be stably performed by the auxiliary braking unit even though the operation error of the main braking unit occurs.

An aircraft includes a brake lever for receiving a pilot braking input as a lever travel of the brake lever, a braking wheel operatively coupled with the brake lever to brake the aircraft based on the lever travel, a brake actuator operatively coupled with the braking wheel to apply a braking force in response to a braking pressure provided to the brake actuator, and a brake pressure circuit. The brake pressure circuit is configured for: estimating a maximum braking pressure above which the braking wheel will skid with respect to a ground surface; scaling a lever gain of the brake lever to command the maximum braking pressure at a full travel of the brake lever such that a remaining brake lever travel indicates the amount of braking capability remaining for the aircraft; and braking the braking wheel based on the lever gain and the lever travel.

An anti-lock sensor ring may have a flattened exciting portion having a retention mechanism projecting from a ring radial edge. The retention mechanism may have cantilever spring retention clips elastically deformable to snap on a disc brake band retention seat. The mechanism may also have a cantilever support portion disposed side by side to and spaced apart from the cantilever spring retention clips. Each of the cantilever spring retention clips may have a retention surface and the cantilever support portion with a support surface. When the anti-lock sensor ring is dismounted from a disc brake band, the plane defined by the retention surface and the plane defined by the support surface are facing each other in order to create opposing gripping elements.
