Hydraulic braking systems for vehicles
First Claim
1. A hydraulic braking system for a vehicle comprising a pedal-operated hydraulic booster and master cylinder assembly for applying a brake on a wheel and having a master cylinder and a servo chamber, a control module responsive to the behavior of said wheel, an auxiliary hydraulic power supply defining a booster pressure in the servo chamber, a flow valve assembly through which fluid is supplied to said brake, and a solenoid-controlled valve means for controlling said flow valve at least for brake re-application during ABS by application to said flow valve of control fluid from said servo chamber in response to signals from said control module.

Abstract
An hydraulic braking system for a vehicle comprises a pedal-operated combined hydraulic booster and master cylinder assembly (1) for applying a brake (15, 18) on a wheel (16, 19) and having a master cylinder (6) and a servo chamber (7), an auxiliary hydraulic power supply (10) defining a booster pressure in the servo chamber, a flow valve (17, 20) through which fluid is supplied to the brake, and a solenoid-controlled valve (27) for controlling the setting of the flow valve for brake re-application during ABS by the application to it of control fluid from the servo chamber (7) in response to signals from a control module (38).
