A reservoir tank mounting section includes a reservoir tank configured to store a hydraulic fluid of a brake apparatus, and an auxiliary machine case. The auxiliary machine case has a tank supporting section configured to hold the reservoir tank. The tank supporting section is constituted by a recessed section in which an outer surface of the auxiliary machine case is recessed inward. The tank supporting section is formed substantially along an outer surface shape of the reservoir tank and has an outer surface covering wall configured to cover an outer surface of the reservoir tank.

A dissymmetric braking system has at least one right wheel braking device, at least one left wheel braking device, at least one device to apply a braking action, at least one actuating device to transform the braking action into a first pressure, at least one right wheel connection, at least one left wheel connection, and at least one pressure reducing device having at least one transfer device receiving the first pressure. The transfer device transforms the first pressure into a reduced second pressure, whereby avoiding, during the braking action, a fluidic connection between a fluid having the first pressure and a fluid having the second pressure to determine, during the braking action, a relationship between the first pressure and the second pressure with linear trend without variation of linearity throughout the operating field of the pressure reducing device, so that the braking action of one of the right wheel braking device and left wheel braking device is lower than the other.

A system and method configured to direct the braking energy from a high-pressure port at the motor side of a hydraulic circuit to emergency steering, braking, accumulator(s) charging, and/or various work functions. The system and method are also configured to return hydraulic fluid back to the same high-pressure port when the motor is running as a pump.

A brake unit having a container which serves for accommodating working fluid and which is arranged with at least one connector piece in a receiving bore and which is sealed off by a sealing element which extends radially around the connector piece. In order to offer a simple, inexpensive and pressure-tight interface between connector piece in a receiving bore, it is proposed that a form fit transversely with respect to the direction of the longitudinal axis of the connector piece is formed by a displacement of the material of the sealing element during the installation of the connector piece in the receiving bore.
