Referring to fig. 17, a schematic cross-sectional view of a conventional coupled brake system is shown, for example, the coupled brake system disclosed in taiwan patent No. TW I653169. As shown in the figure, the conventional linkage brake system mainly includes a first master brake pump 91, a second master brake pump 92, a first caliper 93, a second caliper 94, a brake wire 98, a first brake oil pipe 96 and a second brake oil pipe 97, wherein the first master brake pump 91 includes a first cylinder 911, a first brake lever 912 and an actuating rod 915.
The actuating rod 915 is disposed on the first pivot point 9111 of the first cylinder 911, and the actuating rod 915 is actuated to push a first plunger 913, so that the first cylinder 911 sends a hydraulic pressure to the first brake caliper 93. The first brake lever 912 is mounted on the second pivot point 9112 of the first cylinder 911, the rocker arm 925 is mounted on the third pivot point 9221 of the second cylinder 921, the rocker arm 925 moves to move a second plunger 923, so the second cylinder 921 sends a hydraulic pressure to the second brake caliper 94, the brake wire 98 includes a first sleeve 981 and an inner wire 982 passing through the first sleeve 981, the inner wire 982 transmits the force applied by the first brake lever 912 to the rocker arm 925, one end of the first sleeve 981 abuts against the actuating rod 915, and the other end abuts against the second cylinder 921.
When the brake lever 912 is operated, the inner wire 982 pulls the rocker arm 925 with a force applied by the brake lever 912, and the reaction force of the first sleeve 981 pushes the actuating rod 915, so that the first brake caliper 93 and the second brake caliper 94 are actuated to generate a braking force. The brake wire 98 is disposed between the first master cylinder 91 and the second master cylinder 92, and the path of the brake wire 98 is usually in a bending state, because the brake wire 98 must bear the force exerted by the first brake lever 912, the brake wire 98 must have a certain strength to avoid breaking, and the opposite first sleeve 981 must also have sufficient rigidity to avoid over-compression due to the reaction force of the wire to make the hand feel soft, but the sleeve with sufficient rigidity will apply force to the actuating rod 915 when bending, so that the first plunger 913 is applied force to the actuating rod 915 when the brake lever 912 is not actuated, and the pressure of the first brake caliper 93 cannot be released.

The actuating rod 15 and the first cylinder 11 are pivotally connected to the first pivot point 111, and have a first wire fixing seat 151, a second wire fixing seat 153, and a first pushing portion 152 for pushing against the first plunger 13, the first pivot point 111 is located between the first wire fixing seat 151 and the first pushing portion 152, when the actuating rod 15 rotates, the first pushing portion 152 can push the first plunger 13 to move, the first brake lever 12 and the first cylinder 11 are pivotally connected to the second pivot point 112, the first brake lever 12 can be operated by a rider to brake, and the first brake lever 12 has an end 123, a pushing portion 121, and a rotating shaft 122.
As shown in fig. 1, the second master cylinder 2 includes a second cylinder 21, a second brake lever 22 and a rocker arm 25, the second cylinder 21 has a second oil chamber (not shown), a second plunger 23 and a second spring (not shown), when the second plunger 23 moves, the second spring is compressed, and a part of hydraulic oil in the second oil chamber is pushed out of the second cylinder 21, so that the second master cylinder 2 generates an oil pressure. The second brake lever 22 is pivoted to the third pivot point 221 together with the swing arm 25 and the second cylinder 21, so that the second plunger 23 is pushed when the swing arm 25 rotates; and when the second brake lever 22 is rotated, the swing arm 25 is pushed.
The first brake oil pipe 6 can transmit the hydraulic oil of the first brake master cylinder 1 to the first brake caliper 3, so that when the first brake caliper 3 is input with the oil pressure, a braking force can be generated on a rear wheel brake disc (not shown) to decelerate or stop the vehicle. The second brake oil pipe 7 can transmit the hydraulic oil of the second master cylinder 2 to the second brake caliper 4, so that when the oil pressure is input to the second brake caliper 4, a braking force can be generated on a front wheel brake disc (not shown) to decelerate or stop the vehicle.
In this embodiment, the brake wire 8 used in the present invention includes a first sleeve 81, a second sleeve 83 and an inner wire 82 passing through the first sleeve 81 and the second sleeve 83, wherein one end of the first sleeve 81 is disposed in the second cylinder 21, the other end is disposed in the first wire fixing seat 151, one end of the second sleeve 83 is disposed in the second wire fixing seat 153, and the other end is disposed with a thread end 831 screwed with a nut 832, wherein the nut 832 and the thread end 831 are tolerance clearance portions for facilitating adjustment of the brake wire 8 by a rider.

When the first brake lever 12 is initially operated, the inner wire 82 is pulled by the shaft 122, and the first sleeve 81 and the second sleeve 83 generate a reaction force to push the actuating rod 15, so that the first master cylinder 1 generates an oil pressure to generate a braking force for the first brake caliper 3.
Please refer to fig. 5, which is a cross-sectional view illustrating a linkage braking state of the first master cylinder according to the first embodiment of the present invention. When the first brake lever 12 is continuously pressurized, the first plunger 13 exerts a reaction force on the actuating rod 15 to resist the rotation of the actuating rod 15, and the rotating shaft 122 is far away from the actuating rod 15, so that the rocker arm 25 pushes the second plunger 23, and the second master brake pump 2 generates a hydraulic pressure to actuate the second brake caliper 4 to generate the interlocking brake. Because the inner wire 82 is pulled by the rotating shaft 122 through the pulley relationship, the maximum force obtained by the rocker arm 25 is only half of the force applied by the pulley, and the size of the brake cable 8, a thinner throttle wire may be used instead, and the first bushing 81 also uses a thinner throttle wire for the inner wire 82, therefore, the brake cable sleeve with higher rigidity is not needed to be used, so that the force applied to the actuating rod 15 by the first sleeve 81 generated by the tendency bending of the path in the assembly layout is relatively small, the normal action of the actuating rod 15 is not influenced, moreover, the force applied to the actuating rod 15 by the first sleeve 81 and the second sleeve 83 is the same as the force applied to the axle 122, i.e. the force applied to the first brake lever 12 by the rider, the actuating rod 15 can also apply the same force to the first plunger 13, and the system does not reduce the force applied to the first brake caliper 3 due to the linked braking effect.

As shown in fig. 8, when the first brake lever 12 continues to apply force, the pushing portion 121 forces the first pushing portion 152 to rotate, so that the first master cylinder 1 provides a hydraulic pressure to brake the first brake caliper 3, and finally the vehicle still has a braking function without a general failure of the braking function.
