BRAKE SYSTEM INTRODUCTION
The braking system is designed to allow the driver to slow down and stop the vehicle. The master cylinder is connected to the brake pedal by the driver stepped on to force the fluid under pressure to each wheel brake installation.

Here hydraulic power was used to force the installation of
brake pad against the revolving rotor plate
or push out the brake
shoe against the
brake drum round.
Parking
brake system
/ handbrake cars
usually use mechanical
means and mounted on the rear wheels. It is
usually used to lock the wheels
of the vehicle when parking
(parking) or braking
in an emergency.
To
increase power which called (servo) are used on the master cylinder
for added power
when braking.
Uses
To be able to stop the vehicle immediately and safely
Uses
To be able to stop the vehicle immediately and safely
To control the vehicle during the journey
For step parking

Brake system Must Be Good: -
-Can stop the vehicle quickly when required.
-Must in good condition and in the driver's control at all times.
-Cannot lose braking power.
-Not requiring frequent adjusted.
-Suitable for all speed, weight, and temperature.

Master Cylinder
Master cylinder constructed
in two main sections of the
reservoir and master
cylinder body.
Reservoir is provided for supplying brake fluid to control the brake system.
Reservoir is provided for supplying brake fluid to control the brake system.
As part of a cylinder containing a piston
packing paired primary
(primary rubber cup) and packing duplicate
(secondary rubber cup).
Spring is inserted at the end of the piston to allow the piston back
to the original position after braking.
Compensation valve (check valve) was
installed at the end of the cylinder to maintain the pressure in the brake
pipe.
Two output ports are
connected using brake pipelines.
One of the wheel snap ring mounted so as to hold the components in the cylinder from the outside is divided out there guarding dust (dust cover) to prevent dirt from entering the cylinder.

The push rod is used to connect the pedal to
the pressure of the master cylinder.
Pipeline Brake and can be Flexible Hose
Brake pipes and flexible hoses attached to the brake system is to deliver high-pressure fluid to the brake caliper (caliper) and wheel cylinders (wheel cylinder).
Generally flexible hoses mounted on front wheels and caused the front wheel moves
down and up.
Due to the operation of the brake fluid in a
high pressure, pipes and brake hoses must be
made of high
quality materials to prevent
leakage.
Brake pipe made
of steel tube that can withstand corrosion and high pressure. While
the flexible hoses made of rubber
mix of high quality.
Caliper Brake
Brake caliper usually has two types, namely: -
1. fixed caliperCaliper Brake

Fix caliper |
Fixed caliper type usually have 2 or 4 piston mounted opposite each other.
Each cylinder there is a bushing (seal).
The bushing serves to prevent brake oil out of the cylinder and piston is pulled back to the original place to provide a running clearance between the pad and the disc surface.

Floating Caliper |
2. floating caliper
Caliper type float (floating) has only one piston, but the size is larger than the size of the piston calipers are used on a regular basis.
The brake calipers are typically used for disk brake type (plate)
