A control device comprises two brake master cylinders (13, 14), both of which may be operated simultaneously by the same single manual control lever (15), according to a combined or integral braking mode. A switching element (27), associated with the manual control lever (15), may exclude one (14) of the two brake master cylinders.

An object of the present invention is to provide an emergency braking device for an automobile that is capable of preventing a safety-related accident by applying a braking force even when a brake pipe or the like is ruptured. To this end, the emergency braking device for an automobile of the present invention is an emergency braking device for an automobile that is added to an automobile that is braked by a pressure of main brake fluid transferred through a brake pipe when a brake pedal is stepped on and that is instantaneously and automatically switched to an emergency braking device when braking is not performed due to the rupture of the existing (main) brake pipe, or the like. The emergency braking device for an automobile includes a valve unit, an emergency pipe; a pressing part; and a pressure source.

A brake apparatus for a vehicle, comprising: a 3-way solenoid valve unit including one or more 3-way solenoid valves, a valve block having a first surface on which the 3-way solenoid valve unit is installed, at least one accumulator, a pressurizing unit, and a plurality of wheel cylinders, wherein each 3-way solenoid valve includes a first port, a second port, a third port, a first opening/closing flow path, and a second opening/closing flow path, and at least a part of the at least one accumulator is disposed between the 3-way solenoid valve unit and a second surface of the valve block.

The present invention comprises: a piston provided in a cylinder hole; a lid member which closes an opening on the other side of the cylinder hole; and elastic members and which are provided between the piston and the lid member. The elastic members and comprise a first elastic member provided on the piston side of the cylinder hole, and a second elastic member provided on the lid member side of the cylinder hole. The second elastic member has a base portion provided in line with the first elastic member, and a protruding portion protruding from the piston side end surface of the base portion. When the piston has moved in the axial direction to the lid member side, the protruding portion touches the piston, undergoing compressive deformation, and the base portion subsequently undergoes compressive deformation.

This application is applicable to intelligent automobiles, new energy automobiles, conventional automobiles, or the like. In embodiments of this application, a fluid outlet pipe of a first hydraulic chamber 16 is configured in segments on a push rod support portion 14 and a push rod 13. In this way, when a piston 12 is located at an inner stop point of a piston stroke, a first hydraulic adjustment port 14a located on the push rod support portion 14 communicates with a second hydraulic adjustment port 13a located on the push rod 13, and when the piston 12 is located at a position other than the inner stop point in the piston stroke, the first hydraulic adjustment port 14a does not communicate with the second hydraulic adjustment port 13a.

A combination hydraulic master cylinder comprising two typically parallel pumps disposed within adjacent compartments within a common body of the combination hydraulic master cylinder. Each pump's piston physically pressurizes hydraulic fluid that has been separately drawn into its respective cylinder and in hydraulic isolation, however the proximate location of the independent pumps allows for convenient operation using one hand on one handlebar with reduced congestion of space rather than the more conventional arrangement of two separate master cylinders. The pistons are actuated mechanically using dedicated levers mounted externally to the cylinders. The levers are adjustable in the manner to which they are disposed to the pistons. One lever is oriented such that it is operable using a finger pull action; the second lever is oriented such that it is operable using a thumb push action.
