Abstract: A vehicle braking system includes a master cylinder having a pedal feel simulator incorporated therein, a reservoir configured to retain a volume of unpressurized brake fluid for use in the vehicle braking system, a wheel cylinder coupled to the master cylinder via a first braking circuit, an electronically-controlled pressure generating unit configured to move fluid through the first braking circuit to the wheel cylinder in a first mode of operation, and a two-way valve positioned in the first braking circuit and configured to selectively decouple the master cylinder from the wheel cylinder. In the first mode of operation, the master cylinder is decoupled from the wheel cylinder via the two-way valve and the master cylinder is coupled to the reservoir via the two-way valve. In a second mode of operation, the master cylinder is coupled to the wheel cylinder via the two-way valve.

Abstract: A fan assembly includes a motor ring and an electric motor supported by the motor ring and including an output shaft defining a central axis, a brush assembly, and a motor end shield having at least one aperture and disposed adjacent the brush assembly. The fan assembly further includes a splash shield adjacent the motor end shield. The splash shield includes a rim having an inner surface in facing relationship with the motor end shield and configured to direct an airflow between the motor end shield and the splash shield in a substantially radial direction toward the central axis, and configured to redirect the substantially radial airflow through the aperture in a direction having both a radial and an axial component with respect to the central axis.
