Abstract
In a fluid pressure control apparatus for a vehicle which includes a main body in which an input opening is formed in communication with a master cylinder side and an output opening is formed in communication with a wheel cylinder side, a stepped bore made in the main body, in communication with the input opening and output opening; a stepped piston slidably fitted into the stepped bore, a poppet type movable body for limiting fluid flowing from the wheel cylinder side towards the master cylinder side in response to a predetermined length movement of the stepped piston; a path for connecting the input opening side of the stepped piston with the output opening side of the stepped piston; and a valve for closing the path in response to a movement longer than the predetermined length. For controlling the stepped piston movement, there are provided a first spring for always urging the stepped piston in a direction to open the valve and a second spring for urging the stepped piston in the direction to open the valve whenever the movement longer than the predetermined length has occurred.
