The orifice is provided in the return line. The damper is connected to the return line between the orifice and the hydraulic pressure pump and damps discharge pressure pulsation of the hydraulic pressure pump. The one-way valve is provided in the return line between the damper and the orifice and prevents a hydraulic flow from an orifice side to a damper side.
