A hydraulic braking system for an automotive vehicle having a power source for generating a hydraulic power pressure, a reservoir, a master cylinder having a master piston, a hydraulic booster for actuating the master cylinder in response to depression of a brake pedal and a plurality of wheel brake cylinders connected to the master cylinder for braking respective road wheels. The hydraulic booster is provided with a power piston which is larger in diameter than the master piston. The power pist...

Compounds of the general formula (I): ##STR1## and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, in which A, B, C and D each represent --CH.dbd. or --N.dbd., with the proviso that at least one of them is --N.dbd.; X represents --NH--, --O-- or --S--; Y represents --(CH.sub.2).sub.p -- wherein p is an integer from 0 to 4, --C(CH.sub.3).sub.2 --, --CH.sub.2 CH.dbd.CH--, --CH.sub.2 CO--, --CF.sub.2 -- or --CH.sub.2 COCH.sub.2 --; R.sup.1 represents a hydrogen atom, a C.sub.1-4 alkyl group, a halogen a...

An assembleable anchor-type landscaping device which is lightweight, durable, and capable of being moved and shipped with minimal expense. The anchor device comprises a detachable connected ring, a hollow shank which is formed in multiple portions which are removably connected, a hollow removable stock, hollow and removable arms, and detachable fluke members (optionally hollow). The anchor may be variably filled with a ballast material to achieve appropriate landscaping weight.

A brake system having a master cylinder including main pistons, a brake booster for displacing the main pistons a brake valve for controlling the brake booster and a pressure supply device. The brake booster has a booster cylinder and a booster piston which is displaceable into the booster cylinder. The booster piston divides a booster chamber from an auxiliary chamber, which is located between the booster piston and the master cylinder. A first valve assembly and a second valve assembly are pro...

An anti-locking apparatus is proposed which is intended for a hydraulic brake system having a foot-actuated brake control valve and is intended for use in passenger vehicles. The brake control valve permits pressure medium to flow from a pressure source to the primary side of a hydraulic main cylinder, which is associated with a central switching valve embodied as a 3/2-way valve and at least one 2/2-way valve for the purpose of controlling the anti-locking function. The secondary side of the ma...

A hydraulic brake force amplifier for multiple-circuit brake systems provided with a control valve which is actuated by the brake pedal via a travel-limiting spring. Disposed parallel to the control valve is a main cylinder, which is actuatable by the brake pedal either in accordance with pressure or when there is a failure of the pressure supply. In order that the travel path of the pedal will not be unnecessarily long when the pressure supply is intact, an arresting piston member is used, whic...

A brake system providing traction slip of the controlled driven wheels. The rotating pattern of the driven wheels is permanently monitored by sensors (S1, S3 and S2, S4, respectively). In the event that one of the driven wheels tends to spin, the system switches to the traction slip mode so that a drive M of two pumps (21, 26) is actuated and an ASR valve (80) reswitched causing the air pressure to be applied to the booster chamber of the servo system (3) and the master cylinder to be actuated i...

An anchor includes an anchor shank, a fluke disposed on the leading terminal side of the anchor shank as folded back therefrom, and a buoyancy part disposed on the leading terminal side of the anchor shank. The buoyancy part has a buoyant force that causes the leading terminal side of the anchor shank to rise upward and the basal terminal side thereof to contact the water bottom when the anchor is positioned on the water bottom, allows the leading terminal part of the fluke to remain in contact ...
