Abstract

A pulsating brake accelerating device for an indirectly operating air brake for rail vehicles has a pulsator (12), which is attached to the brake pipe (BP) via a jet (23). The pulsator (12) forms a mixed pressure from two pressures. One of the pressures is formed by the pressure of the brake pipe (BP) via a jet (23) and the other pressure is formed by pressure from a control chamber (QAC) via another jet. At every braking level the pulsator (12) drains mixed pressure pulses off into the atmosphere, while at the same time the brake pipe pressure and the control chamber pressure is lowered via the mixed pressure pulsator (12). The mixed pressure can consist of two valves (14, 15). The control element (4) of the brake accelerator unit can be the emergency brake piston, which monitors several valves, one of which is the pulsator-excitation valve (8).
