A brake cylinder maintaining system that combines a brake cylinder maintaining check valve and a quick service limiting valve into a single unit to have lower hysteresis, and thus more precise BCM regulation pressure and a smaller pressure offset. The check valve and quick service valve are coupled to provide a single system having multiple valve seats for selective communication between quick service pressure and brake cylinder pressure on one hand, and between a brake cylinder maintaining pressure and brake cylinder pressure on the other hand.

A normally closed port valve seals a hydraulic hose connection port of a hydraulic bicycle component. Connection of an end of a hydraulic hose assembly to the port opens the valve, placing the assembly's hydraulic fluid chamber in fluid communication with the interior of the hose assembly. A hydraulic cylinder of the assembly is in fluid communication with the chamber. A spring may be used to bias the valve to a closed condition.

A hydraulic block of a slip control system of a hydraulic vehicle brake system includes receptacles for the hydraulic accumulator and receptacles for outlet valves arranged on opposite sides of each other in the hydraulic block. The sides of the hydraulic block, which comprise the receptacles for the outlet valves and the hydraulic accumulators, are connected to one another by bores perpendicular thereto.

A brake system has a wheel brake and is operable under a non-failure normal braking mode and a manual push-through mode. The system includes a master cylinder operable by a brake pedal during a manual push-through mode to provide fluid flow at an output for actuating the wheel brake. A first source of pressurized fluid provides fluid pressure for actuating the wheel brake under a normal braking mode. A second source of pressurized fluid generates brake actuating pressure for actuating the wheel brake under the manual push-through mode.

An ECP overlay system for a W-type triple valve includes a manifold body having a pipe bracket face configured to engage a face of a pipe bracket of a vehicle brake system, a valve face configured to engage a face of a W-type triple valve of a vehicle brake system, and an electric manifold face. The system also includes an electric manifold assembly engaged with the electric manifold face of the manifold body, with the electric manifold assembly having a pneumatic mode here the electric manifold assembly is configured to allow pneumatic-only control of a brake cylinder of vehicle brake system and an ECP mode where the electric manifold assembly is configured to allow electronic control of a brake cylinder of a vehicle brake system.

A hydraulic control system for control of a hydraulic motor. The hydraulic control system comprises a fluid distribution assembly having a tank, a pump to pump fluid from the tank and a directional valve for distributing pressurised fluid from the pump and to return fluid to the tank; a valve assembly fluidly connected to the directional valve, the valve assembly having a first overcenter valve and a pressure reducing valve wherein a first main line connects the directional valve to the first overcenter valve and wherein a shuttle line connects the pressure reducing valve to the first main line; a hydraulic motor fluidly connected to the valve assembly wherein the first main line connects the hydraulic motor to the first overcenter valve; and a brake assembly fluidly connected to the pressure reducing valve, wherein a drain line connects the pressure reducing valve to the hydraulic motor.

An electronically controlled pneumatic brake system for a vehicle, with a normal brake operating mode (NOM) and a backup brake operating mode (BKM), said system comprising: —a front axle brake module (FBM) for providing pneumatic control pressure to the left and right front pneumatic brake actuators (FW-L, FW-R), one or more rear axle brake module (RBM) for providing pneumatic control pressure to the left and right rear pneumatic brake actuators (RW-L,RW-R), a trailer brake interface(5), —an air production module (6) selectively providing air under pressure to said axles electronic brake modules (FBM,RBM) via first and second air supply circuits (AC1,AC2), a trailer relay valve (1), wherein each of the front and rear axle brake modules (FBM,RBM) is controlled by an electrical control signal (NBC,ES1,ES2) under the normal brake operating mode (NOM) and is controlled by a pneumatic backup brake control line (BKC) under the backup brake operating mode (BKM), wherein the output (12) of trailer relay valve is connected to the trailer brake interface(5) under the normal brake operating mode (NOM), and the output (12) of trailer relay valve is connected to the pneumatic backup brake control line (BKC) under the backup brake operating mode (BKM).

An arrangement for a utility vehicle includes at least one air dryer unit and a regulating unit, wherein the air dryer unit and the regulating unit are designed in each case as separate units. The air dryer unit has at least one air dryer module, in particular an air dryer cartridge, at least one discharge valve and at least one control line for the pneumatic control of the discharge valve. At least one connecting line is provided in the air dryer unit with connection to the air dryer module. The connecting line leads directly to a consumer non-return valve for the air dryer unit, which is arranged outside of the air dryer unit, wherein the connecting line can be used at least partially bi-directionally and/or can be or is connected to a bi-directionally usable line section.
