 The vacuum brake system is controlled through a brake pipe
connecting a brake valve in the driver's cab with braking equipment
on every vehicle.
 The operation of the brake equipment on each vehicle depends on the
condition of a vacuum created in the pipe by an ejector or exhauster.
 The ejector, using steam on a steam locomotive, or an exhauster, using
electric power on other types of train, removes atmospheric pressure
from the brake pipe to create the vacuum.
 With a full vacuum, the brake is released. With no vacuum, at normal
atmospheric pressure in the brake pipe, the brake is fully applied.
PRINCIPLE:

BLOCK DIAGRAM OF VBS
 Driver’s Brake Valve:
The means by which the driver controls the brake. The brake valve
will have (at least) the following positions: "Release", "Running",
"Lap" and "Brake On".
 Exhauster:
It is usually controlled from the driver's brake valve, being switched
in at full speed to get a brake release or at slow speed to maintain the
vacuum.
 Dummy Coupling:
At the ends of each vehicle, a dummy coupling point is provided to
allow the ends of the brake pipe hoses to be sealed when the vehicle is
uncoupled. The sealed dummy couplings prevent the vacuum being
lost from the brake pipe.
PARTS

 Coupled Hoses:
The brake pipe is carried between adjacent vehicles through flexible
hoses. The hoses can be sealed at the outer ends of the train by
connecting them to dummy couplings.
 Brake Cylinder:
Each vehicle has at least one brake cylinder. Sometimes two or more
are provided. The movement of the piston contained inside the
cylinder operates the brakes through links called "rigging". The
rigging applies the blocks to the wheels. The piston inside the brake
cylinder moves in accordance with the change in vacuum pressure in
the brake pipe. Loss of vacuum applies the brakes, restoration of the
vacuum releases the brakes.
PARTS

 Vacuum Reservoir:
The operation of the vacuum brake relies on the difference in pressure
between one side of the brake cylinder piston and the other. In order
to ensure there is always a source of vacuum available to operate the
brake, a vacuum reservoir is provided on, or connected to the upper
side of the piston.
 Brake Block:
This is the friction material which is pressed against the surface of the
wheel tread by the upward movement of the brake cylinder piston.
 Brake Pipe:
The vacuum-carrying pipe running the length of the train, which
transmits the variations in pressure required to control the brake. It is
connected between vehicles by flexible hoses, which can be
uncoupled to allow vehicles to be separated.
PARTS
 Brake Rigging:
This is the system by which the movement of the brake cylinder
piston transmits pressure to the brake blocks on each wheel. Rigging
can often be complex, especially under a passenger car with two
blocks to each wheel, making a total of sixteen. Rigging requires
careful adjustment to ensure all the blocks operated from one cylinder
provide an even rate of application to each wheel. If you change one
block, you have to check and adjust all the blocks on that axle.
 Ball Valve:
The ball valve is needed to ensure that the vacuum in the vacuum
reservoir is maintained at the required level, i.e. the same as the brake
pipe, during brake release but that the connection to the brake pipe is
closed during a brake application.
PARTS

WORKING OF VBS:
Typical vacuum brake cylinder

In a vacuum brake system, depressing the brake pedal opens a valve
between the brake cylinder, which contains a
piston, and the intake manifold to which the brake cylinder is connected.
When you apply the brakes, air is exhausted from the cylinder head of the
piston. At the same time, atmospheric pressure acts on the rear side of the
piston to exert a powerful pull on the rod attached to the piston .
BRAKE VALVE IS OPEN

 When the brake valve is closed, the chamber ahead of the piston is
shut off from the intake manifold and is opened to the atmosphere.
 The pressure is then the same on both sides of the piston; therefore,
no pull is exerted upon the pull rod.
 The brakes are released and the piston returned to its original position
in the brake cylinder by the brake shoe return springs.
BRAKE VALVE IS CLOSED

BRAKE RELEASED
 This diagram shows the condition of the brake cylinder, ball valve and
vacuum reservoir in the release position. The piston is at the bottom
of the brake cylinder. Note how the brake cylinder is open at the top
so that it is in direct connection with the vacuum reservoir.
 A vacuum has been created in the brake pipe, the vacuum reservoir
and underneath the piston in the brake cylinder.
 The removal of atmospheric pressure from the system has caused the
ball valve to open the connection between the vacuum reservoir and
the brake pipe.
 The fall of the piston to the bottom of the brake cylinder causes the
brake blocks to be released from the wheels.
WHEN BRAKE IS RELEASED

BRAKE IS APPLIED
 During the brake application, the vacuum in the brake pipe is reduced
by admitting air from the atmosphere. As the air enters the ball
valve, it forces the ball (in red in the diagram above) upwards to close
the connection to the vacuum reservoir.
 This ensures that the vacuum in the reservoir will not be reduced.
 At the same time, the air entering the underside of the brake cylinder
creates an imbalance in the pressure compared with the pressure
above the piston.
 This forces the piston upwards to apply the brakes.
BRAKE IS APPLIED
 simple in design
 Ability to get partial release, something the pneumatic brake could
not do without additional equipment.
 Greater amount of safety because the vacuum lossage results in the
braking of the vehicle.
 Highly reliable in the case of rail wagons.
 Permits the automatic application of brakes down the entire length of
the train from a simple control in the driver’s hand.
 Vacuum brakes are also fail safe since the vacuum is used for
applying the brake
ADVANTAGE

 The practical limit on the degree of vacuum attainable means that a
very large brake piston and cylinder are required to generate the force
necessary on the brake blocks.
 The existence of vacuum in the train pipe can cause debris to be
sucked in.
 The vacuum brake was not as effective as the air brake, it taking
longer to apply and requiring large cylinders to provide the same
brake effort as the air brake. It was also slow to release and requires
additional equipment to speed up its operation.

Note how the brake cylinder is open at the top so that it is in direct connection with the vacuum reservoir.  A vacuum has been created in the brake pipe, the vacuum reservoir and underneath the piston in the brake cylinder.  The removal of atmospheric pressure from the system has caused the ball valve to open the connection between the vacuum reservoir and the brake pipe.  The fall of the piston to the bottom of the brake cylinder causes the brake blocks to be released from the wheels. WHEN BRAKE IS RELEASED
  • 15.  During the brake application, the vacuum in the brake pipe is reduced by admitting air from the atmosphere. As the air enters the ball valve, it forces the ball (in red in the diagram above) upwards to close the connection to the vacuum reservoir.  This ensures that the vacuum in the reservoir will not be reduced.  At the same time, the air entering the underside of the brake cylinder creates an imbalance in the pressure compared with the pressure above the piston.  This forces the piston upwards to apply the brakes. BRAKE IS APPLIED
  • 16.  simple in design  Ability to get partial release, something the pneumatic brake could not do without additional equipment.  Greater amount of safety because the vacuum lossage results in the braking of the vehicle.  Highly reliable in the case of rail wagons.  Permits the automatic application of brakes down the entire length of the train from a simple control in the driver’s hand.  Vacuum brakes are also fail safe since the vacuum is used for applying the brake ADVANTAGE
  • 17.   The practical limit on the degree of vacuum attainable means that a very large brake piston and cylinder are required to generate the force necessary on the brake blocks.  The existence of vacuum in the train pipe can cause debris to be sucked in.  The vacuum brake was not as effective as the air brake, it taking longer to apply and requiring large cylinders to provide the same brake effort as the air brake. It was also slow to release and requires additional equipment to speed up its operation. LIMITATIONS
