Abstract
The braking pressure corrector is controlled by the load of the vehicle by means of a controlling unit. This controlling unit (20) comprises a push rod (22), a preloading spring (26) exerting a thrust of fixed magnitude on the push rod (22), and a controlling spring (42) exerting on the push rod, through a reversing device (36), a traction of variable magnitude as an inverse function of the load of the vehicle. According to the invention, the reversing device (36) is mounted to pivot with respect to the casing (12,24) of the corrector by means of an articulation (38) of the swivel joint type.
