The operation of this arrangement is shown in Fig. 8. The two cylinders indicated in the foregoing illus-tration are shown as made in one piece which corresponds with the actual construc-tion. The differential piston in the A chamber is connected with the brake rigging by means of a slotted connec-tion, of such a length, tliat it only comes into contact with the brake rig-ging at the end of the stroke w lien the pressure in B and C has equalized.
