This citation summarizes a one-page announcement of technology available for utilization. Modern dual-braking systems for automobiles usually consist of two master cylinders, with each cylinder operating controls diagonally opposing sets of wheels. If one braking system fails, the other stops the car by braking the two wheels it controls. Each master cylinder applied braking power to all four wheels in an improved dual-braking system. Thus, even if one system fails because of the loss of fluid, the other stops the car by braking all four wheels. ...FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: A copy of this actual Tech Note is available by ordering the monthly subscription package, order number: PB81-925412, price code: E02.
