ABS pump is installed in the engine compartment near the firewall. ABS pump is translated as "Anti-lock Braking System" in Chinese, and together with airbags and seat belts, it is known as one of the inventions in the history of automotive safety. ABS pump is an automotive safety control system with advantages such as anti-skid and anti-lock. The working principle of ABS pump: when a large current is applied to the solenoid valve, the plunger moves to the upper end, the passage between the master cylinder and the wheel cylinder is cut off, the wheel cylinder is connected to the hydraulic oil tank, and the brake fluid in the wheel cylinder flows into the hydraulic oil tank, reducing the braking pressure. At the same time, the drive motor starts, driving the hydraulic pump to work, pressurizing the brake fluid that flows back to the hydraulic oil tank and delivering it to the master cylinder, preparing for the next braking cycle.
