Abstract
A brake pressure control device is capable of realizing reduction in a braking distance of a vehicle by promoting control in decreasing brake pressure applied on wheel braking force generating members such as wheel cylinders or a response function in increasing the brake pressure applied on the wheel braking force generating members in generating braking force on wheels. When there is a pressure difference between wheel cylinders, a reservoir control valve is brought into a blocking state and two control valves are brought into a communicating state by which pressure of the brake fluid is shifted from a wheel cylinder on high pressure side to a wheel cylinder on the low pressure side, by which the pressure of the wheel cylinder on the high pressure side can be decreased by only shifting the brake fluid between the wheel cylinders without making the brake fluid flow into a reservoir and accordingly, a relative time by which the reservoir becomes full is retarded and the response function in increasing the pressure of the brake fluid can be enhanced by that amount.
