Patent ID: 10449940

Abstract:
A pre-filling device for a braking system. The pre-filling device includes a pre-filling channel, a pre-filling pressure being inside the channel when the braking system is in a rest and hydro-boost position, and a mechanical valve configured to be opened following a transition from the rest and hydro-boost position to a working position of the braking system; and a hydraulic valve cooperating with the mechanical valve setting the pre-filling pressure inside the channel. The hydraulic valve includes in a first area, facing the mechanical valve, a hole communicating with the channel, and in a second area, hydraulically isolated from the first area, a preloaded resilient element in a chamber held at atmospheric pressure. The hydraulic valve is configured to be connected or not to be connected, by a reciprocating movement inside the channel, to a hydro-booster device and to keep a predetermined pre-filling pressure upon varying of the hydro-boost pressure.
