A steer/brake system for a vehicle (with wheels and/or tracks) is disclosed. The system may comprise a steering system with an operator control and braking system for each side of the vehicle with a master cylinder for the brake mechanism and an interface between the braking system and the operator control. Operation may provide a phase where the interface is at least partially engaged and force may be applied through the interface to the master cylinder to engage the brake mechanism to provide modulation for the operator control. A steering emulation system may comprise the interface and a compliant element configured to provide modulation for the operator control. The system may comprise a shared hydraulic system; the brake mechanism may comprise the steering brake mechanism and the service brake mechanism.

A pressure generating device for a vehicle braking system includes a motor with a worm attached or formed on its motor shaft; a worm gear which, with the aid of a rotation of the motor shaft, can be made to carry out a rotary movement about a rotary axis oriented at an incline to the motor shaft; and a piston that is adjustable at least with the aid of the rotary movement of the worm gear, where a first spindle nut is attached or formed on the worm gear, and at least a first spindle is attached or formed on the piston, the first spindle being adjustable along the rotary axis with the aid of the rotary movement of the worm gear oriented about the rotary axis in such a way that the piston is also adjustable along the rotary axis or in parallel to the rotary axis.

A master cylinder is described. The master cylinder includes a chamber delimited by a piston and supplied from a brake fluid reservoir installed on the top of the master cylinder by an end fitting engaged in a nozzle on the body of the master cylinder. The piston has a nose of reduced section upstream of its skirt guided in the bore hole of the master cylinder and the nozzle is connected to the chamber by a drill hole issuing into the chamber at least partly upstream of the piston in rest position. A valve module is installed in the drill hole to manage communication between the reservoir and the chamber as a function of the position of the piston and the pressure in the chamber with respect to the pressure in the reservoir.

Various technologies for reducing a speed of land vehicle by rotating its handle bar. A device comprises: a handlebar having a longitudinal axis; a seat coupled to the handle bar; a line coupled to the seat; and a brake coupled to the line, wherein the handlebar is rotatable about the longitudinal axis such that the seat moves and thereby controls the brake via the line.

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 hydraulic assembly for generating brake pressure for a hydraulic brake system, comprising a housing which is produced from a cast blank, having at least one receiving cavity for receiving a connector piece which is connected to a fluid container and which can be plugged along a plug-in axis (S) into the receiving cavity. The cast blank has, in the receiving cavity, at least one substantially planar surface, the normal vector (N) of which is oriented at an oblique inclination angle (W) with respect to the plug-in axis (S).
