Japanese Patent JPS5072328
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
A control apparatus for activating the wheel brakes of a trailer in response to a deceleration force from a tow vehicle exerted through a resilient coupling. The resilient coupling is surrounded by first and second telescoping members to maintain the deceleration force from the tow vehicle in direct axial alignment with a pressure producing device. A force absorbing device located between the first and second telescoping members will attenuate the oscillatory movement caused by road conditions from inadvertently establishing a momentary deceleration force through the resilient coupling.
