Patent ID: 10662977

Abstract:
A vehicle hydraulic system includes: (a) a hydraulic pump device to be driven by a vehicle drive source to eject a working fluid through first and second outlet ports; (b) a first line passage that guides the working fluid ejected through the first outlet port, with a hydraulic pressure being regulated to a relatively high value; (c) a downstream-side passage in which the hydraulic pressure is regulated to a relatively low value; (d) a path-switching valve device configured to allow the working fluid ejected through the second outlet port, to flow into the first line passage, when the hydraulic pressure is lower than a predetermined value, and configured to allow the working fluid ejected through the second outlet port, to flow into the downstream-side passage, when the hydraulic pressure is higher than the predetermined value; and (e) a bypass passage provided between the second outlet port and the downstream-side passage.
