Abstract

An antiskid apparatus including a changeover valve disposed in a line connecting a master cylinder and a wheel brake, the changeover valve being changed over between a first mode for cutting off the wheel brake from the master cylinder and connecting the wheel brake to a reservoir, and a second mode for alternately connecting the wheel brake to a pump and the reservoir when an antiskid operation is performed, a pressure increase control valve connected between the pump and changeover valve with wheel brake pressure serving as a control signal pressure, and a pressure decrease control valve connected between the wheel brake and reservoir with wheel brake pressure serving as a control signal pressure. The pressure increase control valve decreases an amount of pressurized oil flow from the pump to the wheel brake when wheel brake pressure decreases and increases the amount of pressurized oil flow from the pump when wheel brake pressure increases. The pressure decrease control valve increases an amount of pressurized oil flow from the wheel brake to the reservoir when wheel brake pressure decreases and decreases the amount of pressurized oil flow from the wheel brake when wheel brake p…
