Abstract
A brake hydraulic pressure generator is proposed which is simple in structure and can suppress fluctuations in the brake pedal operating amount due to fluctuations in the amount of brake fluid consumed in the brake circuit. The brake hydraulic pressure generator includes an input shaft operated by a brake pedal, a stroke simulator for imparting a stroke and a reaction force corresponding to the brake pedal operating amount to the input shaft, a master cylinder for generating brake hydraulic pressure, and a pressure detector member for applying a reaction force corresponding to the hydraulic pressure in the master cylinder to a valve member of the control valve. The reaction force is transmitted through the pressure detector member to the control member. The input to the brake pedal is transmitted to the control valve through the stroke simulator so as to oppose the reaction force. The control valve operates to balance the reaction force and the input.
