Abstract
A braking system for a vehicle includes an indicator device provided to reliably indicate a state of a parking brake of the system, while being simple, convenient, and economical. The system includes a body that delimits a service brake pressure chamber and/or a parking brake pressure chamber, a parking brake movable relative to the body, an unlocking part for unlocking the parking brake connected to the parking brake pressure chamber and accessible from outside the body, and a parking brake indicator device. The indicator device is configured to receive a position of the unlocking part via a state pipe and an indicator of supply and/or the venting of the service brake pressure chamber and/or of the parking brake pressure chamber. This information is processed in to detect and indicate an engaged state or a disengaged state of the parking brake.
