Is the Brake Pedal the Same as the Brake?
1 Answers
The automobile brake pedal is indeed the brake. As the name suggests, the brake pedal is a pedal that limits power, specifically the pedal for the foot brake, used for decelerating and stopping the vehicle. It is one of the five major control components in automobile driving. Related introductions are as follows: Types of automobile brakes: Brakes are divided into service brakes and parking brakes. The service brake is the foot brake, also known as the brake pedal. During driving, the service brake is generally used, which is beneficial for decelerating and stopping while moving forward, not just keeping the car stationary. The parking brake is only used when the service brake fails. When the vehicle comes to a complete stop, the parking brake should be engaged to prevent the vehicle from sliding forward or rolling backward. Operation of the automobile brake pedal: Slow braking (i.e., anticipatory braking), emergency braking, combined braking, and intermittent braking. Generally, during slow braking and emergency braking, before the wheels lock up and the vehicle stops, the clutch pedal should be fully depressed to prevent the engine from stalling and to facilitate changing the speed again.
