Abstract
A brake fluid pressure control valve of a deceleration sensing type to be interposed in the hydraulic circuit, which connects, in the hydraulic braking system for a vehicle, the master cylinder and the rear wheel cylinders, with the object of effecting a proper distribution of the braking force, in response to the load degree or condition, to each of the front and rear wheels. The control valve includes a fluid passage, a first plunger for interrupting the fluid passage, and a device for controlling the operation of the first plunger, which device includes in turn a second and a third plungers to control the operation of the first plunger in accordance with the fluid pressure given from the fluid passage via a gravity valve. The third plunger constantly urges through a spring the first plunger, and the second plunger does not abut on the first plunger, while being in an empty or nonloaded state, even under a brake application, but abuts, while being in a heavy loaded state, on the first plunger so as to rigidly urges the same, in order to save the brake pedal stroke or brake oil quantity.
