Abstract
This relates to a hydraulic brake system particularly adapted for use in conjunction with large rotating masses. The system includes at least two calipers which are widely spaced. In accordance with the system, there is positioned adjacent each caliper a solenoid valve and there is at each valve a constant supply of hydraulic fluid under pressure so that when the valve is actuated there is an immediate supplying of hydraulic fluid under pressure to each caliper. The arrangement permits an early response time as compared to systems wherein the system must be pressurized from a remote source.
