Abstract:
A braking system for a road vehicle having: a brake disc; a brake caliper provided with at least one hydraulic piston; a hydraulic circuit containing a brake liquid and having: a hydraulic control unit provided with an electrically controlled pump and a delivery pipe, which connects the hydraulic control unit to the hydraulic piston; a return pipe, which is separate from and independent of the delivery pipe and connects the hydraulic piston to the hydraulic control unit; a recirculation solenoid valve, which is interposed along the return pipe and can be controlled so as to enable or forbid the circulation of the brake liquid along the return pipe; and a control unit, which, when the braking system is not used, opens the recirculation solenoid valve and operates the electrically controlled pump so as to create a circulation of the brake liquid through the first delivery pipe and through the return pipe.
