In an electric automobile traveling by driving a rear wheel with an electric motor mounted on a vehicle body rear part, a load distributed to the rear wheel is larger than a load distributed to a front wheel by an amount corresponding to a weight of the electric motor. Therefore, it is desirable that a braking force distribution amount to the rear wheel be larger than that to the front wheel. Without providing a proportional pressure reducing valve changing a ratio of braking force distributed between the front and rear wheels, it is possible, by supplying a same brake fluid pressure from a master cylinder to front and rear wheel brake calipers and carrying out regenerative braking in the rear wheel, to make the braking force distribution amount to the rear wheel larger than that to the front wheel.

An emergency braking device including an actuator (2), a pressurizing circuit (3) supplying the actuator (2) via a control pressure and a discharge circuit (4). The discharge circuit (4) includes restrictors (13, 14) for controlling the pressure and/or flow rate of the supply fluid of the actuator (2) during a discharge of the actuator. The restrictors (13, 14) are configured to define an intermediate pressure between a low pressure level and the control pressure of the actuator (2).

The invention relates to an emergency braking device comprising an actuator (2), a pressurizing circuit (3) supplying the actuator (2) via a control pressure and a discharge circuit (4), characterized in that the discharge circuit (4) comprises means (13, 14) for controlling the pressure and/or flow rate of the supply fluid of the actuator (2) during a discharge of the actuator, these control means (13, 14) being configured to define an intermediate pressure between a low pressure level and the control pressure of the actuator (2).
