Abstract
A braking system for braking a rotor relative to a stator, the braking system comprising braking means respectively secured to the rotor and to the stator, a brake piston, return means for returning the piston to its braking position, a braking chamber, and a brake release chamber, which chambers are interconnected via a link duct serving to generate a flow of fluid in an assisted braking situation in which the braking chamber is connected to a fluid feed duct, while the brake release chamber is connected to a fluid return duct. The link duct is equipped with means for limiting the flow of the fluid at least in the direction going from the brake release chamber to the braking chamber.
