摘要:
A brake system assembly for a motor vehicle is provided comprising an air compressor operably engaged to the motor vehicle engine; a compressed air control device; at least one supply circuit for retaining compressed air in fluid communication with the compressed air control device; a service brake operably engaged by the application of compressed air; a parking brake operably disengaged by the application of compressed air; a dash control assembly having a parking brake control; a plurality of functional conduits for fluid communication; and a plurality of valves for manipulating compressed air including a foot brake valve for selectively engaging the brake system.
摘要:
An axial piston compressor produces air supplied to an air system of a vehicle, typically a heavy duty truck through a plurality of pistons (24) held within a stationary block (22), and the movement of the pistons (24) is predicated through the control of a pivotal swash plate (34). The pistons (24) are idle in a neutral position of the swash plate (34), wherein a pressure above the pistons (24) in the cylinder block counterbalances a thrust generated by an actuator (41) upon the swash plate (34) positioned in a plane extending perpendicular to a drive shaft (12). The swash plate (34) oscillates in response to a pressure drop above the pistons (24) causing the actuator (41) to expand toward the swash plate (34) and exert a thrust exceeding the lowered pressure above the pistons (24) and enabling the swash plate (34) to provide the pistons (24) with reciprocal motion.
