Brake device
A brake device is characterized by being provided with an auxiliary pressure source 100 that accumulates a predetermined range of brake fluid pressure in an accumulator 102 on the basis of an operation of a fluid pressure pump 101 , and that outputs the brake fluid pressure as an accumulator pressure; and an electromagnetic valve 110, 111 that controls blocking of communication between the fluid pressure pump 101 and the accumulator 102 and a main pipe line, and that transmits the accumulator pressure to a wheel cylinder when placed in communication state.
1. A brake device comprising:
a brake fluid pressure control actuator having a main pipe line coupling a brake fluid pressure generating means generating a brake fluid pressure in accordance with an operation of a brake operation member with a plurality of wheel cylinders, a differential pressure control valve disposed in the main pipe line, dividing the main pipe line into a first pipe line on the brake fluid pressure generating means side and a second pipe line on the plurality of wheel cylinder sides, and generating a differential pressure to control a differential pressure between the first pipe line and the second pipe line, a motor, and a pump driven with the motor to suck/discharge a brake fluid, controlling a differential pressure between the first pipe line and the second pipe line by controlling the motor and the differential pressure control valve, and controlling a brake fluid pressure generated in the wheel cylinder;
an auxiliary pressure source accumulating a brake fluid pressure within a predetermined range in an accumulator based on an operation of the fluid pressure pump to output the pressure as an accumulator pressure; and
an electromagnetic valve controlling communication/cutoff between the accumulator and the main pipe line to set a communication state so as to transmit the accumulator pressure to the wheel cylinder, wherein
in case of emergency,
the electromagnetic valve is switched to the communication state, the pump of the brake fluid pressure control actuator is driven, and the differential pressure control valve is set in a differential pressure state,
so as to pressurize the wheel cylinder with both the accumulator pressure and the pump.
