Abstract
An emergency braking device including an actuator (2), a pressurizing circuit (3) supplying the actuator (2) via a control pressure and a discharge circuit (4). The discharge circuit (4) includes restrictors (13, 14) for controlling the pressure and/or flow rate of the supply fluid of the actuator (2) during a discharge of the actuator. The restrictors (13, 14) are configured to define an intermediate pressure between a low pressure level and the control pressure of the actuator (2).
