摘要:
A pneumatic brake booster (10) has a booster housing (12), the interior of which is subdivided by at least one movable wall (22) into a vacuum chamber (24) and a working chamber (26). Projecting into the booster housing (12) is a control valve (28) which, after a response force acting counter to its operating direction has been overcome, controls a pneumatic pressure difference acting upon the movable wall (22). The control valve (28) is operable both by means of a mechanical input element (36) and, independently thereof, by means of an electromagnetic arrangement (48) comprising a coil (58) and an armature (50), which are displaceable relative to one another along the operating direction. To reduce the response force which has to be overcome by a user, a device for detecting an operation of the control valve (28) effected by means of the mechanical input element (36) is provided which, once such an operation has been detected, during said operation prompts an energizing of the electromagnetic arrangement (48) of an intensity sufficient to reduce the response force of the control valve (28) yet not increase the braking force provided by the brake booster in accordance with the operation.

A characteristic changing device is adopted in the inventive brake control system for the vehicle. The characteristic changing device sets a differential pressure between a first brake hydraulic pressure which is applied to wheel cylinders and a second brake hydraulic pressure which is generated by a master cylinder so that the first brake hydraulic pressure is higher than the second hydraulic pressure when the second brake hydraulic pressure is reduced. Due to the differential pressure set as described above, the first brake hydraulic pressure enough to exhibit effective braking force is kept even if the second brake hydraulic pressure is reduced.

A sensor assembly for a vacuum brake booster (10) comprises a housing (48) arranged outside the brake booster housing (12), in which a differential pressure sensor (56) is located. For connecting the differential pressure sensor (56) with a working chamber (16′) of the brake booster (10), the housing (48) has a first air duct (50) which extends from the sensor assembly (46) to the working chamber (16′) of the brake booster (10). In addition, the sensor assembly (46) has a second air duct (52) which extends into a vacuum chamber (18′) of the brake booster (10) in order to connect the differential pressure sensor (56) with said vacuum chamber (18′). A plug-type or socket-type connector (64) for a further sensor is provided in particular on the side of the sensor assembly (46) which is opposite the air ducts (50, 52).

The invention relates to an electromagnetic valve, with a valve tappet guided in a valve housing that exhibits a valve-closing element, with a valve-seat holding element facing the valve-closing element, which forms an independent subassembly together with the valve housing, as well as with an armature that activates the valve tappet and can be excited by means of a valve coil arranged on the valve housing. The armature is designed as a cold extrusion pressed part and the valve housing is designed as a deep drawn part or cold extrusion pressed part.

A brake pipe overcharge detection scheme determines when an overcharge situation occurs followed by an interruption of the brake pipe slow pressure reduction process of the brake system assimilation. When the slow pressure reduction process is interrupted, the rail cars may be left in an overcharged state (i.e., the car braking system is charged to a pressure greater than the normal brake pipe pressure). When the brake pipe pressure is set to its normal brake-release value, the pressure of the car braking systems will be greater than the brake pipe pressure. The car braking system will interpret this positive pressure differential as a request to set the car brakes, and will therefore partially apply the car brakes. As a result, additional drag forces will be encountered by the locomotive as it moves the train, which may result in train separations, and overheating of the car brake shoes and wheels may result in cracked wheels and derailments.

The invention relates to a piloted valve, in particular an electropneumatic control valve for a pneumatic brake system of a vehicle. Said valve comprises a divided valve housing, in which at least one control piston that can be axially displaced for actuating a valve seat arrangement, which switches the compressed air flow between external connections, is located. The control piston can be impinged by at least one electromagnetic pilot valve to cause the axial displacement, said valve being lodged in a pilot valve housing part that is connected to the relay valve housing part, whereby a pressure compensation channel with multiple bends is configured in the vicinity of the wall of the control chamber in the valve housing for bleeding a pressureless hollow chamber in the interior of the valve. The outlet opening of said channel that leads to the exterior is located at a distance behind a cover hood on the valve housing and is protected against water splashes. The section of said channel that lies in close proximity to the hollow chamber is provided with an interchangeable pressure compensation element.

A connection unit is adapted to be connected to train line and brake line connectors of a locomotive as part of a remote control system for the locomotive. The connection unit includes a receiver for receiving remote control instructions, an interface for connection to the train line and brake line connectors, and a microprocessor. The microprocessor is arranged to determine the locomotive's configuration, interpret the received remote control instructions, modify said instructions dependent on the locomotive's configuration, and operate the interface such that the locomotive is controlled according to the locomotive configuration and the remote control instructions.

A brake power booster for automotive vehicles includes a control valve that is operable by an electromagnet irrespective of an actuating rod displacing a valve piston, the electromagnet actuating a third sealing seat which permits ventilation of the working chamber. The valve member of the control valve has passages which allow a pneumatic pressure compensation. To eliminate a pneumatic force component which counteracts the force generated by the electromagnet, the passages are provided radially outside the area delimited by the electromagnetically operable sealing seat on the sealing surface of the valve member.
