Abstract
In order to increase the efficiency of a booster (10), the rear chamber (18) of which contains an auxiliary drive member (28) having a pressure chamber (30) connected to a pressure source (34) via a control device (36), the latter comprises a normally closed valve (38), via which the source (34) can communicate with the pressure chamber (30), and a mechanism (40) actuating this valve, which controls the opening of the latter automatically when the pressure in the rear chamber (18) exceeds the pressure in the front chamber (16) of the booster by a given value. Such an assembly can be used particularly on a braking system of a motor vehicle.
