Abstract: A first vacuum valve seat 17 is formed on a valve body 3, and a second vacuum valve seat 18 is formed on a tubular member 21 which is slidably mounted on the valve body 3. A lever member 41 is provided between the tubular member 21 and a valve plunger 14, and when the valve plunger 14 strokes through a given stroke or more relative to the valve body 3, the lever member 41 moves angularly to retract the tubular member 21 rearward relative to the valve body 3. When a brake pedal is quickly depressed, the lever member 41 moves angularly to cause an engaging tab 41f to engage an engaging recess 44 formed in the valve body 3, thus retaining the tubular member 21 at a position which is reached as it is retracted rearward relative to the valve body 3. This allows an atmosphere valve 33 to be opened to a greater opening than during a usual operation, allowing an increased output to be obtained rapidly.
