Abstract
Disclosed is a braking system of an automobile, which can produce and store an electric power by means of the energy generated when the automobile is braked, thereby increasing efficiency in energy use, and simultaneously which can perform an anti-lock braking function and a traction control function. In the braking system, a master cylinder generates a hydraulic pressure when the brake pedal is pressed. A variably exhausting pump unit performs a pumping operation by the hydraulic pressure from the master cylinder. A control section senses a traveling state of the automobile and controls so that a proper braking force is applied to a wheel of the automobile. A flow control valve providing the variably exhausting pump unit with the braking force. A generating section generates electricity by means of a bypassed hydraulic pressure according to the order of the control section.
