Abstract: A braking system for a vehicle may include a regulating device disposed between a braking device and a pressure agent source that causes the braking device to move. The regulating device may include a slide having an internal chamber with a supply port, a venting port, and a regulating port opening into the internal chamber and through which a pressure agent from the pressure agent source may flow. The regulating port can be located between the supply port and the venting port. Each of the supply port and the venting port may have a general cross-section for passage of the pressure agent substantially having a shape with at least one apex.

Abstract: Disclosed is a railway braking system including a control device having a valve with a body having a cavity and a slide having an internal chamber, supply notches and drainage notches each having an overall passage cross-section for a pressure medium having a shape exhibiting an apex, and being movably mounted in the cavity, between a supply position where the supply notch is opposite a supply groove of the body, and a drainage position where the drainage notch is opposite a drainage groove of the body; the device being configured to allow a substantially stable control configuration, wherein the pressure value of the medium is limited, and wherein the slide is positioned in the cavity such that a control notch of the slide is opposite a control groove of the body while the supply and drainage notches are respectively at a distance from the supply and drainage grooves.
